Custom Remington 700 Classic 6.5x55 - 06/09/19
A great rifle that is probably one of the best deals out there. I bought an Accurate Ordnance 6.5CM and paid too much not to use it when I shoot 6.5 bullets.
I picked up this rifle couple years ago from original owner that took a pretty rare Remington 700 Classic in 6.5x55 and had some custom work done on it. He had it cerakoted in Sniper Grey, which is very smooth and consistent and looks great.
He also had it threaded, cap included, and the barrel is original length. He also told me his gunsmith work over the action but I have not pulled the barrel to confirm. The action is extremely smooth and it shoots lights out so have no reason to believe it wasn't worked over.
I have it in a new HS Pro Series stock and the color combo with the cerakote looks awesome. I replaced the original trigger with a new Timney and it feels and shoots great.
Below are pics of two bullet loads I worked up with the rifle, 120ttsx and 130ABs. Both are right at 1/2" at 100yds. It also shot factory Lapua 123 and 139 Scenars inside 1". Very accurate rifle which most of the Classics were to begin with. Great rifle and package for someone that wants a near custom at a much lower price than full custom.
$1250 for the full package below:
Remington 700 Classic Rifle
Hornady Die Set
100 pieces of brass... Half new and half shot once
1 box of Lapua 120 Scenars and 1 box of 139 Scenars...both 50ct boxes have 3 shells shot.
