Testing the waters... up for Sale/Trade is my Semi Custom 300 RUM.

It started out as an R700 SPS 300 RUM. I gutted and upgraded it to its current state. It's currently sporting:

6 flute, straight fluted 26" Lilja barrel 1/12" twist.
Seamless radial muzzle break (5/8x24).
Bell and Carlson Long Range Tactical Stock. Thumb Hook Style.
Glass bedded.
Standard Xmark Pro Trigger.

I know that 1/12" isn't optimal for the RUM. It limits the larger bullets the RUM can shoot... this wasn't my doing, I purchased the Lilja barrel used online as a .308. It was advertised as a 1/10" twist but when it arrived and I took it to my gunsmith he measured it over and over and delivered the unfortunate news, it is in fact 1/12" and it was to late to do anything about it. So I had it threaded on and I went with it.

That being said it will shoot the 180 grain stuff in .5 MOA and below at 3150 FPS, with only 81.5 grains of powder. Wich makes this thing a laser beam rifle with the light bullets and also due to the weight and minimal powder charge it's actually a delight to shoot. Let me know if you have any questions. Can get more pics up if desired.

Asking $1250 O.B.O for the rifle. I'll throw in 50 once fired Norma brass as well. Scope and Rings NOT included.

Trades/Partial Trades I would be interested in:

R700 Clone Custom Actions (LA/MBF).
Nice long range Scopes.
High End Billet AR15 uppers/lowers/parts
(Odin Works FDE Billet AR15 Upper.
Odin Works Ragnarok 17" foegrip)
Kuiu Icon Pro 3200 pack and frame.
Or...? Let me know what you have!

Bump. All PMs responded too. More pics and info clarification:

Barrel is free floated, 26" without the break, and slightly heavier than sendero contour. My current loads are loaded a little longer than Sami spec, and still load into the magazine and feed perfectly. Rifle weighs 11lbs on the dot with scope and rings.

Only flaws I can find with the rifle is that there are some tool marks near the shank from threading, not scratches... I can't feel them with my thumb nail, just looks to be different than the rest of the bead blast finish. And a small nick on the bolt shroud. Please see pics.
