Home Forums Gear Free Classifieds FS ANIB Lipsey's Barrett Fieldcraft 6.5 CM

I'll probably regret this... but, FS is a "Lipsey's Special" Fieldcraft 6.5 Creedmoor with 24" no.2 contour.

Rifle has never been hunted, and only been to the range 3 or 4 times this past spring. It has 121 rounds down the tube.

I only tried one powder (RL17) and one seating depth (.025" off lands), concentrating on finding a "hard" bullet that worked in it. Turns out it loves 130 & 140 gr Nosler Accubonds (see photos).

With almost zero trouble I found this rifle shoots simply beautifully.

Included is the original box, hang tags, and 1" Talley Lwt Lows.

$1450 shipped USPS to your ffl. Price is firm, not interested in any trades. This is a legit shooting rifle.

First "I'll take it" owns it. Please follow up with a PM for payment/shipping details. This is listed on another site.

Paypal "Friends/Family" or USPS MO.

Thanks.

Free bump for a great rifle. If it were left handed, this deal would be over.

Thanks OSU, it's too bad there aren't more LH lightweight options out there...

Nice rifle! Since I don't keep up with these rifles, what is a Lipsey Special?

Brad,

No.2 Contour... what is the barrel diameter at the crown?

Thanks,

Jerry

#2 contour vs #1'ish. 24" vs 21" in the unthreaded variety.


Great deal here with Talley's on a great rifle.

Lipsey's made a special run of the Fieldcraft 6.5 CM with a 24" no.2 Douglas Contour, rather than the conventional 21" no.1 Douglas Contour... I prefer the slightly heavier, weight forward feel of the no.2 contour.

As 257 said, the no.2 is unthreaded, unlike the 21" which is threaded.

Jerry, it mic's .615" @ 24"

Quick correction on the available options:

24” #2 unthreaded (Lipsey’s exclusive)
22” #2 threaded and cerakoted black
21” #0/1 unthreaded
18” #2? threaded

I had a 21” featherlight that I had threaded to 1/2x28 for a silencer. It consistently put up a 3/4” 5-shot group with factory Hornady ammo. I upgraded recently to the 22” threaded #2 and, with suppressor, is easily a 1/2 MOA rifle with factory Hornady loads.

My point is this: Brad has lost his damn mind. Somebody snatch up this rifle before he comes to his senses.

LOL, thanks for the clarification and psychological analysis

Couple more groups... only shot a couple with these two bullets, but they certainly show promise:

You’re gonna REALLY regret selling this...

Somebody better grab this before I talk myself into ‘needing’ another one

What is the bare weight of the rifle?

Not sure... here’s with Talley’s and a Leupold 3.5-10x40 (w/ a Mountain Sling and 4 rounds added it’s a hair under 7lbs):

Brad,

Thanks for the info.
I would think that the Scope and rings shown account for 15 to 16 ounces of that 6.8 oz, so the bare rifle weight is about 5.5lbs.. ?

Found a photo...5lbs 9.9 oz’s.

Wish that stock grip fit my right hand.

Too bad for you... fits mine perfectly.

I have one just like this one. Shoots great. Guys, this is a bargain that shouldn’t be passed over.
