Oh I know the answer to the riddle. I'm surprised Bricktop didn't chime in.
Utah708, your Ruger 338-06 isn't selling because:
1. You make it abundantly clear you wont shoot it, so you can say you can't comment on its accuracy. Shoot it and post the groups.
2. It hasn't got the rings it should. Mine has stainless not blued rings.
3. Not matching the barrel contour to the stock is a mess. You say its a Shilen barrel with sharp professional lettering and name the previous owner, but you don't offer any proof.
4. Why get a 338-06 wildcat that's a mess for $700 + shipping when you can get a Ruger Hawkeye 338 RCM for $499 + transfer, with ammo and brass readily available?
Bam,it is no mystery why the rifle wont sell.
Lefty777 - You have never owned a Ruger you've been pleased with, and MRC actions are made by Ruger. You'll have to search for a used Winnie left hand. Go sharpen your harpoon.
