I have a M77 22WMR in a Zytel paddle stock. This was bought on a strict budget and it came with rings, mod but no sight. My spare sigh didn't fit as the bolt caught the back of the scope. 
So I looked at higher Ruger rings and they were between £40 and 60 so I discounted those as I eventually wanted to mount a nightvision unit on it so had to buy the Brittania rail adaptor - £100.
The standard mounting system looks to be really sturdy and eventually will go for a variation for .308 so I can use it on Boar and Deer and will look for a used M77 in .308 I think.

Very easy to install, but my first one that was delivered had the dowel pin hole bored out of line. And when I closed the bolt... it went off. Luckily I had a back stop.
My replacement unit was perfect.

Paddle stock, blue barrel in .308 screw cut with mod and a fitted rail.
Out of interest, do you know how much it weighs please?
Perfect, thanks!

I've got a Hogue for a long action but you would need to bed it if you want similar accuracy. Nathan Foster has info on this (Terminal Ballistics).

Did you get round to that?

I’ve had three of the 77 MK-II’s . One in the normal 77R hunting version in 7x57 did the trigger in a way the factory woulda frowned on made sure the barrel was floated and worked up a couple loads . And it was a serviceable rifle . The other two were the stainless HB laminate stock jobs in 6mm PPC and 204 Ruger both of them had the trigger massaged but otherwise just load work both were 1/4 MOA with the PPC flirting with 1/10 MOA .
No, I made one for my Sako and now life has properly got in the way of certain hobbies
I did free float the barrel and bed the action with epoxy & aluminium pillars though.
Gotcha, thank you!
I would be very interested but need to sort out out variation and stalking so don't want to put the cart before the horse
