Remington 700 custom 6.5-06

Recommended Posts

This is a relist from last year -



Remington 700 blueprinted action, old style Remington trigger tuned to 2.5 pounds (great trigger), 24" Brux # 3 barrel twisted 1:8. Stock is 13 1/2" LOP and is a lightweight MPI stock. Weighs approximately 6 3/4 pounds as you see it in photos. Rifle balances well and shoulders great. Throat and box is factory. Plenty of room to chase lands.



I sent the barreled action to Eddie Fosnaugh last year along with the stock to work his magic. He did his world famous bedding job along with his world famous ceracote and stock painting. Ceracote is graphite black. Stock is patriot brown with black speckles. Rifle after painting has a textured feel.



A few minor scuffs on the stock, bolt from working it, and some very light finish specs on the end of barrel are the only imperfections I can find, neither can be captured in photos.



Included Redding 2 piece die set, Talley 1" lows, and 50 brand new .25-06 Winchester brass (10 or so already necked up). No neck turning required. Run .25-06 brass through the 6,5-06 FL die set and presto...

 

$1,400 for entire package -


A thrown together load with no workup shot well under MOA at 350 yards last weekend.

Lance or anyone else - grin...

 

I'll take trades plus or minus cash for NULA rifles, quality 12x bins, quality spotters of 60 or 65mm, or SWFA 3-9x42 scopes.

 

I really love this rifle. I'm just too rifle rich currently...
