I bought this rifle brand new and I am the original owner. It was manufactured in January of 1994. It has a fully floated 26 inch heavy contour barrel with a concave crowned muzzle. The short action chambered in .220 Swift is nestled in an HS Precision composite stock that has a full receiver-length aircraft-grade aluminum bedding block for maximum stability. The barrel and receiver have a matte finish, while the two-lug bolt is nicely jeweled. The adjustable trigger is wide enough to accommodate the index finger’s entire pad, it also has a series of vertical grooves for plenty of non-slip contact surface. The trigger breaks crisp and clean with no take-up and no creep. The rifle has a hinged floor-plate magazine. It has 80 rounds down the tube. It shoots lights out with Hornady Custom 55 grain spire points. The glass is a Leupold Vari-X III 6.5 x 20 with adjustable objective and a duplex reticle. It’s mounted with Leupold base and rings. The rifle is perfect in every way, inside and out, and it functions flawlessly. $1250.00 plus shipping to your FFL in CONUS.

And I’d be interested in the rifle only, without the scope... PM if that would be a possibility.
Use the swift and NEVER look back....!

I’d like to keep the glass and the rifle together. I haven’t given any thought to the value of the scope and rifle separately. I mounted the brand new scope myself when I bought the rifle, I bore-sighted it myself, and shot it in with the ammo. mentioned in the post. It’s always been the way it is from the get-go...for over 25 years. It just works...exceptionally well. If it doesn’t sell as it is - well, I haven’t decided what I’ll do at that point. Regardless, I very much appreciate the inquiries. Thank You. And regards.

I had one identical to it in 22/250. I also had one in 223 with a 4.5X14 Leupold on it. The 223 didn't shoot well so I sold it. I purchased another 223 Rem 700VS several years ago at Shields NIB and it shoots great.

Making black powder smoke is a great thing..

Nice rifle. How about a Nightforce NXS 3.5x15 and a hundred bucks.

I’m not interested in any trades, only selling. Thank You though.
