Custom Winchester Model 70 Classic Stainless in 6.5 GAP 4S (6.5 SAUM) Stated life as a Classic Stainless 300 WSM from New Haven CT, then LRI did their Tier One Accurizing/blueprinting package adding a #3 Bartilein, which was fluted and finished at 23.3”. Trigger is a very nice 2.5 lbs Stock is a professionally finished and fully pillar and glass bedded Bansner/High Tech fitted with a 1” Decelerator at 13.5” LOP. PT&G 1pc bottom metal, is also perfectly fitted and bedded. Weight is a sweetly balanced 7lbs. This rifle shot 3/4” or less right off the bat w/ 143 ELDXs and H1000. 0.5” or less is not uncommon and my good buddy “iddave” borrowed this for an elk hunt (nice bull @ nearly 600 yards) and used his skillz to shoot this tiny cluster group below. 0.081” Freebore reamer. Approx: 85 rounds down the tube. Adding a reliable scope puts this at an ideal balance of long range capability and packable, well balanced weight. Something around $2650 invested. NF and Talleys not included $1835 shipped to your FFL (from individual, AK a bit more, full insurance on your dime) 115 count Hornandy brass (proper “6.5 GAP” stamped) 37 of which are unfired, Redding dies and a handful of 143 ELDx are available to buyer for $100 + shipping.

It spins 147s just fine and I’m sure heavier at the velocities this is cookin. "You know why nobody panic buys 30-06 ammo? ... Because men with 30-06's don't panic"
