No you won't be the only kid on the block to one one................you'll be one of two humans on the entire planet to own one. The other guys isn't selling his.

This rifle will shoot clean through a rabbit at distance. Front to back or side to side.
In fact, once shot, you'll be hard pressed to determine front, baack, side or inside and outside. Hell, it'll even eat small game for you.

If you think you'd like to own it, make me an offer. I'm not married to it and you might just be surprised at what I think " reasonable is.
Probably have a box or two of Hornady 225 spire points laying around to go with it.

Title says 338-06, text says 338-08.
Nice looking gun, I have one of each and sometimes make the same mistake.
I have mislabeled some ammo that way, I've learned to open the box and look. grin

Granbury is the county seat. 37 miles s.w. of Fort worth on Hwy 377.

Also should mention there's a bunch of sierra 215 and 250 grain bullets to go with this.

Will also accept nice 1911's as partial trade. No race guns please......I just can't afford the speeding tickets.

Counted 200 Sierra 215 grain soft point, 200 Sierra 250 grain soft point, a bunch of Hornady 250 grain round nose I was given ( 30-40 or so ) and 1 full box, one open box of Hornady 225 spire point bullets to go with the deal.
Almost no brass, didn't load nearly as much as I thought for this, maybe 45 rounds of empty for load development.

EVERYBODY is pro-gun, some just don't know it. When an anti-gun person is in trouble, the first thing they do is call 911 and demand that they send somebody with a gun!

Insecurity issues I suppose smile

When the blank was turned, threaded and crowned it just came out that way. Wanted something longer than 20 and no longer than 24 inch to capitolize on cartridge volume. It's well balanced and surprisingly agile in dense cover. Hate to sell it but can't shoot it any more.
