If you're mounting glass on a Ruger M77 Hawkeye African rifle, the right scope rings make all the difference—and Ruger's factory 90279 5BHM high scope rings are engineered specifically for your rifle. These 1-inch tube rings are designed to securely hold standard one-inch scopes and accommodate 52mm objectives, giving you a solid platform for accurate shooting whether you're hunting or working at the range.
Ruger factory accessories carry the confidence that comes with manufacturer-backed components. These rings feature a matte blue steel finish that matches the Hawkeye's classic look and resists glint in the field. High rings sit your scope higher above the receiver, which matters if you're running a larger objective or need extra clearance over your rifle's action—a practical consideration for African hunting or magnum calibers where rail space and sight picture alignment both count.
The 90279 5BHM is a single ring, so you'll need a matching pair to complete your setup. Built to Ruger's standards for fit and durability, these rings are a straightforward choice for shooters who want factory-correct parts without guesswork about compatibility.
