Overview

The Ruger 77/357 is a bolt-action rifle chambered in .357 Magnum, a cartridge more commonly associated with revolvers but also utilized in rifle platforms for enhanced ballistic performance. This model features an 18.5-inch barrel, a length that reflects Ruger's approach to balancing overall rifle dimensions with the characteristics of the .357 Magnum cartridge. As part of Ruger's 77-series bolt-action lineup, the 77/357 falls within the rifle category, distinguishing it from lever-action or pistol-caliber carbine designs also chambered for this round. The combination of bolt-action operation and .357 Magnum chambering makes this rifle a distinct entry in Ruger's product catalog for shooters researching pistol-caliber rifle options.
