I grabbed a 6.5 Creedmoor Savage Axis for 175.00. Trigger was atrocious but remedied that and now its at 3.5#. Most all groups were less than MOA with 2 rounds touching and a flyer.
For 175 that will work.
1st round a flyer? Last? Random? Might be a simple action screw tweak or float the barrel if needed Polish sears and cocking peice? Clip a coil on a spring? What did you do to it?
Curious about em....
Last round flyer. It most likely was me, trying to shoot in 90 degree temps and high humidity. Mirage was crazy for 100yards.
Clipped the spring in 1/4 coil increments till I got to 3.5#. Performed all safety tests with each cut and only a touch of take up.
Thought about restocking the rifle for something stiffer, but got a grandson eyeing it and it fits him pretty good as is.

James Last night when I checked Oak grove priced a wood stock .308 for 184.
Im throwing the dice and seeing if they drop more.
Go get it if it interest you.
They should in about 30 days, unless someone else decides that's a good enough price.
That'd make Emmanuel the Amish fellow a good deer rifle.
I just like ta get one. Project rifle after deer season. Trigger, bedding, floating, burn stock work for highlights , refinish Zero it in see how it shoots. Trade bait, sell for a profit, or keep???? Pics or it never happened stuff. Throwing the dice, keep an eye on em...

Finally scored one of these cheapies. 700 ADL .223. For $199. Wasn’t on the rack. Poor girl in that area didn’t know beans from apple butter, said they didn’t have any 700s, then I pointed to a .243 and 7 mag on the rack. Finally figured out her database. Went to safe, came back with the clearances .223.
Regular sales guy probably hadn’t told her that she’s just supposed to come back and say they didn’t have any left.

Just got one myself except I was delayed for some fugging reason. There is an ADL in 7MM Remington magnum there also for $249. Might go back and get it also.

Concealed carry permit....................never delayed. At least I don't know of a case where there was one.
Mines delayed as well. She said they’ve been getting more delays than not lately. Typically gets a call back in a day or two. Couldn’t be because of the panic buying though...
I passed on a 7 mag for $250 at a store 5 miles away, had it in the rack. I just don’t need a 7 mag. Trying to talk myself into it.

Same here, I would probably waste a pound of powder and a hundred bullets seeing how it shot and sell it.

For a long time I toyed with the thought of getting a CCW permit but the laws changed and I can carry a loaded gun in my truck without one. If it was serious enough that I needed to carry concealed I would with or without a CCW. However considering the somewhat screwed up going's on lately I will get my CCW soon.
Sometimes the ncis/ state system is magically unplugged
Get the system is down ploy. Btdt... with slumlord on that one. They didnt like I bent over the counter and seen the thing was unplugged.
If ya get a print out saying the system is delayed and you paid for that gun Its yours....
Ran into a scenario at the oak grove walmart on the great weatherby hunt in 2017. I made a manager show me the book to prove the rifle was sold pending ncis Which it was in fact.
Never trust a clerk at wally world gun counter......
They do everything they can at times to hide schitt and make excuse,s ....
Some ... Not all......
Tiny Tims xmas is gonna suck as far as I'm concerned....
Let behind the counter at the Fargo Walmart said they have a couple in the back so if I needed any more they had them. Just the Remington 700 .223 was @ $199 so far. The .243, 308, and 7mm mags were $389
Sometimes ya just gotta go full blown Dan Halen mode on clerks when ya see or feel em doing slim shady schit... LOL!!! especially they stunts they pull with guns and ammo
Some... Not all....
Trust to a certain extent but verify nicely and then ruthlessly if needed.
