Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles NULA model 24 30-06

May have seemed that way, but the issue of discussion is the price of some of these NULA rifles. Spend your money how you want, but common sense is eluding most people nowadays. Simply saying that the only reason for a NULA or Wilson is light weight. At what price are you willing to pay for weight savings? Maybe your the one who's dense?

There is more to them than just that one specification.

It'd be interesting to see what it really does cost to match Wilson/NULA with a 700 by the time it's all said and done.

Bedding, trigger, coating, fluting, trick moves on a bolt, shipping stuff around, etc adds up pretty quick these days.

No dog in this fight but that is why I have come around to the Montana's. I couldn't even come close to matching a Montana for 3X using a 70 action with all of the same features, even in their higher prices I am seeing now.

The new wilson 20s
Have a timney trigger, 8x40 screws, an aluminum floorplate, 416R barrel threaded at 5/8x24, and are available in 5 calibers.

Dang, what a bargain.

"No dog in this fight but that is why I have come around to the Montana's."

That's where I'm at.

Tough to get lighter for less; even with the recent price hike. Maybe some of the howa offerings.

Well it does have a cool paint job.

Wtf wants a 5lb 30-06 any way.? Easy to carry then beats the crap out of you when you pull the trigger. No thanks.

Just curious but is this a scam???????

6 1/2 pounds with a quality scope isn’t a bad place to be.

And you haven't cloned schidt

Me! And upon further review my wife apparently

Don't need to. Said I could. Didn't say I did.

a nula action isnt a remington action but more along the lines of a custom action so say 1000.00 not 400
havent seen a stainless barrel for 300.00 for some time now
what about the timney trigger
from what i have seen a stock installed will be pretty close to 1000.00
barrel work is at least 300.00
then around 200.00 in freight with the high prices these days
i guess you can look at it in multiple ways and different places dictate different pricing

I don't know. Definitely too rich for my blood but, if you want a super accurate 5 1/2 lb with a #2 24" barrel .30-06 with a bolt that locks down and have the $7k lying around? Not too many choices that fit that bill. I'm a backpacker and will pay up for ultra light gear. The gear today just enables me to do similar trips to what I could do 35 years ago. Couldn't do a week of 12-15mi days in the mountains today with 60lbs on my back. But, today's gear let's me cut that weight in half. And, dropping even a 1/2 lb off a rifle is a game-changer for me if I'm putting on the miles. And, I'll add that if the NULA stock fits you, it will help with the recoil. My 6 lb 7PRC Outkast CLR is a pussy cat (subjective of course but I can't help feeling that it should kick more than it does and I credit the stock). If I was in a different tax bracket, I'd buy it.

Possibly, but there’s a whole lot of better and safer ways to launder money….

Bought a shilen select match from midway the other day for 275. Smith will thread, chamber, and install for 275 and true your action up 125. The stock is the expensive part, but could easily be had for under 600.

A SS M700 receiver and bolt, straighten it up, mill some extra weight off, flute the bolt and skeltonize the handle. Weight comes darn close to NULA’s 7/8 copy of the Remington.
Skinny custom bbl.
Trigger assembly of our choice.
Aftermarket stock, even have somebody else bed, paint it and install a lightweight recoil pad if one doesn’t want to do it himself.

That can easily be done for less than $3500, maybe $3000 even at today’s “elevated” prices.
