This outstanding set up started out using a Colt Light Rifle, rare in themselves with as few as 4000 produced. These rifles were designed by Mel Forbes, owner of New Ultra Light Arms. Virtually every upgrade has been completed on this rifle. It has just returned from Beyond Ballistics LLC, where all work was done.
Starting with the synthetic stock, the barrel has been free floated and a Pachmayr Decelerator recoil pad added to minimize the notorious recoil of the .270. It has a Harris Ultralight bipod, Rifle Basix adjustable trigger set at 3lbs. This trigger is excellent with a crisp, clean break without over or under travel, it can be adjusted from 1.5 to 4.0 lbs. The bolt has been polished and the handle radiused to clear the new Nikon 4x12x40 BDC scope using low rings. A Forbes stainless magazine follower and Stryker 23 lb. firing pin spring have been added. This has been set up as an ultralight long range gun but will function equally well as a tactical rifle. These super accurate rifles commonly shoot sub MOA groups prior to all the upgrades done to this gun.
This rifle can be compared to other custom ultra light rifles costing 2 to 3 times more. Here is your chance to own an outstanding tack driver, light to carry for long hunts yet stable and spot on for a tactical rifle. Sellers will trade towards HK Model 270 .22LR, HK 300 .22WMR or other quality fire arms. Comes with the original colt factory box, papers and original parts. Asking $1050, shipping is fixed at $30 to CONUS, additional shipping options can be arranged with seller.
