Our Assessment: The Ruger M77 Hawkeye in .358 Winchester is a powerful and practical bolt-action rifle built for serious hunters who pursue big game in heavy timber and dense cover. The .358 Winchester—based on a necked-up .308 case—delivers excellent performance on large-bodied game like elk, moose, and bear while maintaining manageable recoil and a compact cartridge length. Ruger’s Hawkeye series builds on the legendary M77 platform with improvements to the trigger, safety, and overall ergonomics, all housed in a rugged, matte-blued action and barrel mated to a handsome walnut stock.
This 2010 production rifle is in Excellent+ condition, with a clean bore, sharp rifling, and minimal signs of use. The stock is equally well-preserved, with crisp checkering and a soft red recoil pad for added comfort. With no iron sights, the rifle is ready for optics and comes equipped with Ruger scope rings already installed. Ruger Hawkeyes in .358 Win are relatively scarce, especially in this condition, making this a desirable rifle for those who appreciate big bore ballistics in a lightweight, bolt-action platform. Whether you’re hunting in the Rockies or the backwoods, this rifle is ready to take on just about anything North America has to offer. Please see our photos and good luck on your bid! – L.S.
