Here for your pleasure is a SUPER neat rifle for deer and varmints. It is an early Remington 600 [25XXX] with a 23" Shilen XX barrel chambered in the great calibre 6.5 TCU [Thompson Center Ugalde]. ALL action work like 100% bolt contact and squaring was done to make sure of accuracy. The chambering was done with a custom PTG [Dave Kiff] reamer that does NOT have the long throat used for the Silouetta Matches and allows the lighter and shorter bullets to be seated out short to contact the leade for increased accuracy. This rifle has LESS than 50 rounds fired and was hunted once for Blacktail Deer [one shot--one buck] At the range it shot .55 MOA under all conditions. I was going to use it for coyote but have had medical issues and so it need a new home. My loss?? Your gain. Rifle as is is 99.9% in and out. It has a Bushnell Trophy 3x9X40 included but can be bought without it. Only two bullet weights were used [100 and 120] and both shot perfectly. This is a great rifle for a youngster or wife but the stock [Custom Kevlar-Brown Precision]is 14" LOP so would have to be shortened. The weight, balance and accuracy will amaze you. I shot it in a stiff crosswind and, at 135 yds the group size was the same 1/2" and only blown off center 1/4" !!!!! This rifle is listed as "used" but really should be listed as NEW! $975.00 Buyer pays 25.00 S/H to his or her FFL in the conus. Alaska and Hawaii check first. Thank you for looking. If anyone wants a picture send me your email and I will respond ASAP!

PM sent to request pics to my email so I can post them for you.

What rate of twist?

ETA: What's the weight? What state are you in? Pillar and/or glass-bedded?

Weight as you see it is about 6lb 3 oz. Twist is 1-10. Rifle is pillar bedded as well as regular bedding. VERY accurate little rifle. Thank you very much for doing the picture.
Aloha, Mark
