I need to make some room in the safe and all I’ve done is rob the scope rings(not included) off of this one. I bought it second hand. The previous owner sent it to Hill Country Rifles for their accurizing package, which was about $600. HCR’s package includes pillar/glass bed the action, glass bed the floor plate, trigger job, recrown, and lap the lugs. I included a pic of the only ding I see worth mentioning. Otherwise, it’s in excellent shape. I can send some close up pics if needed. $725tyd

I had one of these rifles and sold it. Probably the only one I ever regret selling. Good luck with your sale.

I know and I think It's so stupid! I have a M77R that I love, but why couldn't it be a short action. Plus, they throat it so damn short it's short for a short action!
WTH is the point in a long action here?

Regardless of your opinion, it's a nice rifle. Wish I were looking again. Had one of these briefly. It shot great. Good luck with the sale.

Buyer couldn't get the funds together. How about $680 shipped in a hard case

Starting to sound like a knife vs gun deal could be in the mix.
