Howa Alpine 6.5 Creedmoor with Tally's.... comes with the original box. Scope not included Bought from SMACK here on the fire. He has a great thread documenting the accuracy and load data he worked up. I love the rifle and used it in a coyote calling contest last year and killed 4 dogs. It was the only time I really took it out. Its a joy to shoot but I'm cleaning out the safe and narrowing it down to a handful of rifles that have more sentimental value to me https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/11491626/1Priced to sell....$735

Very nice, if money weren’t too tight right now it’d be on the way to the Appalachian mtns.

It shoots !!! 300 yards with the 143gr ELD-X. 2785fps with a SD of 9. 1.754” three shot group. Outstanding for a “Mountain rifle” the rifle has also been professionally bedded.

Thanks fellas...
This one is SPF and is headed back home to SMACK.... you know it’s a good one when the original owner wants it back. This couldn’t have worked out any better...

Thanks Sonora! I enjoyed the our conversation and I look forward to carrying the rifle this fall.
