Well, I hate to sell these custom rifles, but I found my dream car, and these are up first.

First is a 1917 enfield that I built a couple years ago in .308 Norma Mag.

I used:
-Hart #4 Hart Barrel 26" 1-10" SS
-Cock on Open
-Bent bolt handle
-action lapped (raceway and lugs) super smooth
-Barrel floated
-Timney trigger
-Weaver bases/rings
-Nikon Monarch 3-9X40
-Receiver contoured
-Trigger gaurd straightened and contoured
-Firing pin lightened
-feeding rails opened for reliable feeding
-New blue job.
-Rem Model 30 bolt stop
-Cottonwood custom stock done in old Fajen style. Gaboon ebony side caps, and spalted coolibah accent wood on bottom.
-1" decelorator pad
-bedded in Devcon steel

This is a top notch rifle and hold a true 1/2" MOA at 100 yards with 5 shots. I have not taken it past 100, but if it is like my other rifles it will hold 1/2" MOA out to 500 plus. I will include my load data with rifle.

This rifle was finished last year with the bluing. I love this gun, but I want my dream car more!

The stock could use a little attention, but from 5 feet away it looks great. Nothing wrong with it, I just never finished the finishing coats. Used Tru-oil on this one, so it is fairly easy to work with.

If you want for FREE, I can mount this barreled action in any stock you supply and put a satin finish on it or leave it unfinished. A high gloss finish takes quite a bit more time, so I'm not offereing that.

The smaller group is 3 shots, and the larger 1/2" group is 5 both at 100 yards.

I have 25 rounds fired through this new Hart barrel, so this is basically a brand new rifle.

Looking to get $1,000 obo

Next up is the first rifle that I built.

It is a Mauser K98 Isreal refurb. I can't recall the manufacture, but it is not one of the sabature ones.

-Receiver blueprinted.
-bolt face/lugs squared
-wears a Adams & Bennett .220 swift F54 barrel CM 1-14"
-FN mauser shroud.
-Bold trigger W/safety
-Devcon bedded and pillared.
-Bottom metal set in glass
-Floated barrel
-Tiger stripe Exhibition grade stock
-Parkerized receiever
-Ceramakote paint on Barrel.
-Leupold bases/rings
-intensity optics 4-12x44 scope.

Holds just over 1/2" at 100 yards. I never got around to doing good load development on it, so it may do better. High gloss Tru-oil finish. Is worn on the top and bottom of the toe and comb of stock. For asking price, I'll re-finish it. When I buffed it out, I buffed too hard in these spots. Has 75 rounds down the barrel.

This is a nice little rifle, but I want my dream car.

looking to get $900 obo.

Forgot to mention, I'll sell the 1917 enfield for $750 plus shipping for the barreled action.

also I made a mistake with the Mauser I was looking for $800 obo, not 9.
