I am really on the fence about this one, still not 100% onboard. I have parts ordered to duplicate this rifle except with a HCA carbon barrel.

I purchased this from 257heaven and the only thing I changed was the scope mount to get it as low as possible and added the paracord sling.

Older Rem 700 SA no-prefix action, action and bolt faces trued, then blued by Ray Montgomery, bolt given Ti fluting and lightening treatment by Kampfeld, Shilen #4 SS Barrel chambered in 358 Winchester, 12 twist and finished at 18.5", protected crown, bead blasted, .695" muzzle diameter, 1" shank from action face, factory walker trigger tuned and reworked to 3-1/4 lbs, McMillan compact McSwirly stock 60% purple, 20% tan, 20% gray, 13.5" LOP, 1" Pachmayr Decelerator, factory aluminum pillars, PT&G ADL Triggerguard, original ADL slotted screws, 7 lbs, 2 ozs with balance about 1/2" behind front action screw, purple and grey paracord sling, Leupold VX-3 2.5 - 8 X 36mm mounted in an extra low DNZ mount.

Selling as a package, will not split it up and buyer has the option to purchase as many cases of Winchester Super-X 200gr soft point ammo with the rifle as they prefer.

Target is 4rds factory at 100yds

Rifle and scope $1600 ftf
$30 for shipping to the continental 48
Ammo per case $325

FTR, to say I am an unmotivated seller is an understatement. I am not interested in any trades.

Free bump.

I built two of those a few years back (700 actions)...

FANTASTIC CALIBER!


If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Oh man. You selling already. Man. I miss that rifle.

And I especially love the stock. I had fun hunting with that one.

This rifle is not bedded in the stock? I remember this rifle when 257 sold it…..

Do you have any trade interest?

It's a McSwirly, I am sure it could be painted, but I can't imagine why, the rifle in person is absolutely beautiful.

It is not bedded, but it does have pillars so it's a moot point.

Thanks Darryle

If Ray Montgomery put it together rest assured that it is 100% done right. ( Although I'm sure he did not pick out the stock )

Ross, I will weigh it when I get home to verify. It's light and very handy.

Thanks Darryle
