The Ruger M77 Hawkeye Predator rifle in .223 Remington with a 22-inch matte stainless barrel (brand part no. 17122) pairs a versatile varmint cartridge with a two-stage adjustable target trigger built for precise shot placement. Ruger wraps the action in a Green Mountain laminate stock with wraparound checkering on the foregrip for a secure hold, and a three-position safety gives shooters a bolt-lock option. The non-rotating, Mauser-style controlled-feed extractor and fixed-blade ejector deliver reliable feeding and extraction, and a hinged floorplate feeds the 5-round internal magazine. Among stainless-and-laminate bolt action rifles, this Hawkeye Predator configuration favors varmint hunters who want a widely available cartridge with a two-stage target trigger.
