Thinking about selling. This has been a safe queen since I finished reshaping the wood stock and bedding the action. You can follow the progress of this rifle on this thread:
Started out as a barreled action and I tried both the Stocky's CF and this Howa walnut stock on it. I preferred this walnut stock, especially after I shaped and lightened it. Finished rifle without the scope is just under 6 lbs. Scope is not included but the Talley rings are. Also included is the aluminum hinged floorplate and the original plastic DBM.
She's a good shooter, printing sub-MOA groups routinely at 200 yards with 139 LRX's. I've run 130 Speers out of it too and those shoot just as well.
With the nice grain in the stock, this would be a good one to hand down to a youngster.
The barreled action alone goes for $607 + shipping at Brownells right now. Stock was ~ $150, the hinged floorplate was another $70 and Talley rings were $60 IIRC. That's $880 value plus the custom shaping, bedding and weight reduction on the stock.
Gonna start at $650 shipped to your FFL. Will need proof of your FFL's license sent to me to ship. Thanks.
