This rifle started life as a stainless 700 BDL.

I bedded it in a KS Stock, swapped out the BDL for ADL bottom metal.

Chopped the barrel to 23” (handles way better than at 26”)

Shoots 162 Amax/ELDX and 160 Accubonds like a champ, and kills mule deer pretty well both near and far.

It’s a great rig.... just don’t shoot it near as much as the small stuff.

Will include the 1” Talley Lows. Scope and pictured Lucassi pool cue not included....

$800 shipped to your FFL (from private party). Prefer PayPal.

Last group I shot with it before deer season last year... off the pack.

Rifle was purchased new in 2016. I had the barrel pulled, threads cleaned up, and barrel reinstalled by a local smith. Everything lined right back up, and the rifle has always shot like a champ.

Thanks Greg.... it’d look good on you...

Any idea weight without scope? Very sharp looking rifle.

I’ve got 50-100 rounds of brass, and two unopened boxes of 162 Amax I’ll throw in for another $50.

WTH...this is a perfect stick with proven shooting abilities. How is it still here?

23” is a perfect choice imho. I already have two .280s (one of which is in a KS stock as well) and I’m sorely tempted anyway.
