Guys:
Have a very nice lightweight win-tuff in 223 that I would like to sell. This is the brown laminate push feed model with the featherweight bbl contour. No sights.
The stock is super clean probably 97-98% and the metal only has a few marks and blemishes and would be a little lower condition. Shows no discernible wear on typical spots like muzzle or floor plate.
Only "modification" that is that the tip of the forend was floated a bit to remove a pressure point I assume, this is how I got it.
The only reason I am selling is that I just picked up the "ranger" version with sights and I am going to keep that one.
Need to get $550 plus actual shipping TYD. Can do a FTF in the SE PA area no problem.
Will get some pics up later today.
Shoot me a PM if you are interested. Thanks bob

Here are a few pics.
Of note - the Trigger guard shows what are the worst blemishes. I could not get the marks on the barrel to show and will re-shoot those.
Let me know if you have questions.

Wanted to clarify that the rings and base will come with this. Also, the bedding has not been modified and still has the original Winchester compound in there. The trigger is pretty good and breaks around 3 lbs and I don't believe it has been "worked".

Well, it's not all that light by today's standards. I will get an actual weight but as pictured I think it is right about 8 lbs. yes, 22 in bbl.

I would guess that's about right.... 8lbs WITH a scope. My twin in .280 was about 7 lbs bare. Even though my health prevents me from hunting any longer, I still get envious when I see my old rifle at my brother-in-law's cabin. Pretty rifles. GLWS.

It weighs 8 lbs 4 oz with the steel mounts and scope pictured. so it should be right about 7 lbs bare.

Still available.
Also, FWIW, I did take it the range last weekend and shot 2 4-shot groups with hornady 55gr SP ammo. Both were right about 1.125 inches CtC.
This was with no tweaking and murky Tasco on board.
