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

Priced to sell....$735

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

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...

Smack,

Next time you sell it, keep me in mind. I can drive up to meet you.
