Remington 700 .260 in McMillan stock with edge fill. Stock and barreled action cerakoted and the bolt had micro slick. Color is "dry earth" on the stock and "sniper grey on the action and barrel. The Micro Slick matches the sniper grey very well

This started as an SPS so it has the desirable 8 twist barrel

Shot fantastic right out of the box, we were hammering prairie dogs out to 300 yards. Maybe 40 rounds fired before I handed it off to my gunsmith to do the Cerakote and titanium bed it. Scope and rings not included $1275 shipped

It is....very nice. So it's ADL configuration? And is that Edge stock a Classic pattern?

Thank you! It's a BDL and I believe the stock is called the Hunters Edge

Thank you! I like it a lot but the fact of the matter is I scored a hell of a deal on a couple rifles this weekend and this one is the odd man out for no other reason than I don't reload and hate to keep asking Dogshooter to "hook me up".

It really is top quality and I've had 4 people text me today to tell me I was 1. An idiot 2. Crazy 3. Stupid and 4. You're a dumbass so it's easy to postulate that if you buy this rifle you are 1. A genius 2. Not even a little bit crazy 3. Brilliant 4. The smartest man to log in to 24HCF so you've got that going for you if you say those 3 magic words....

I've got the same rig sitting in a Mickey mountain rifle stock topped with a VX-6 and she is a shooter. I shoot mainly 120gr pills but it's proven to be very accurate with 130gr accubonds as well. Someone is going to get a hell of a deer rifle.

Thanks Casey. STS45 sent me a PM last night with an "I'll take it" so I've sent him my information and I'm just waiting on his. I've had multiple trade offers that were tempting. Very tempting but I would prefer to just sell it right now. In fact, I'm still on the fence about one offer in particular but I told STS45 that it was his per our PM's

Thanks bud
