Ok guys - This is one of my favorite rifles but am really changing things up so it has to go - This rifle has good mojo -

Faux Ti without fluted bolt chambered in .22-250 Ackley Improved 40 degree by Harry Lawson here in Tucson.

Barrel is a Pac-Nor 1-8" at 22". Contour is a duped Remington 700 Mountain Rifle.

Stock is a Ti stock but not the original version.

Rifle has been bedded and worked over by Eddie Fosnaugh and he has performed one of his amazing bedding jobs on this one. He also ceracoted all the metal in Sniper Gray. With the black Ti stock it looks really sharp. The stamping on barrel is lightly visible through the ceracote Eddie applied on right side of barrel above stock. Eddie also worked over the factory Remington trigger and it is a superb trigger at 2-3 pounds.

Rifle is right at 6 pounds minus scope/rings give or take an ounce or two on my bathroom scale.

Rifle will come with load data, all formed Lapua brass I have on hand 87 pieces (4 are loaded rounds), Redding 2-piece die set, and 1 full box of Berger 80 grain bullets.

Rifle has 296 rounds down the tube. Brass has been fired 3 times, included forming and should have plenty of good life left.

The rifle is in good condition but it has been hunted. There is some slight ceracote wear on trigger guard, on bolt handle knob, and at the muzzle, areas you would expect since this rifle rode in my pack scabbard for hundreds of miles probably.

There are some scrapes on stock and barrel but these are just normal hunting scrapes that I have tried to capture the worst ones in photos. There are some tool marks on the ed of the firing pin assembly where my sweet wife was "trying to help"...This is also in a photo.

Otherwise this rifle kills very well, is extremely accurate, and loves an 80 grain Berger bullet.

Prior to a hunt I just went on, this rifle put 4 shots into 3" at 500 yards off of my pack.

Scope and rings not included but dies, brass, and bullets are.

$1,200 shipped for the package -

First I'll take it gets it over tire kickers -

Thanks for looking -

Won't be here at lunch.


Teach every child you meet the importance of forgiveness. It's our only hope of surviving their wrath once they realize just how badly we've screwed things up for them.

The time is drawing nearer for the American People to stand up for what they believe in. To stop having their rights trampled by the a$$holes in Washington D.C.

strictlyRUM beat out Reno by mere seconds for the rifle via PM for the record -

You two guys work out who gets the rifle. Per conditions stated via timestamp, strictly RUM gets first right of refusal. You guys work it out and let me know ASAP.

Hot damn fellas - should have put $1500 on it to slow down the damn frenzy...grin.....
