I bought this used (like new) condition back in 2002 or 2003 while I was in college. I killed a few ground hogs with it each summer in Pennsylvania and then moved to Virginia in 2005 and didn't shoot it much. I loaned it to my brother about seven years ago when he moved to Texas thinking he might kill some pigs with it and he's had it since then. He came to Virginia to visit last week and returned it to me and I've decided to sell it. I didn't miss it too much while he had it and I'm not sure I want to get back into 22-250. I'll let the pictures do the talking, there are some minor things that I'll point out, things that I would want to know if I was the buyer.
On top of the receiver there are some faint oil/dust residue marks around the area where the scope base was mounted that will probably clean up with some 0000 steel wool and oil
Bottom metal, trigger guard, and bottom side of bolt have some very minor discoloration, again this will probably clean up with some 0000 steel wool and oil
The clear coat on the grip cap is bubbled/blistered
A small gouge behind the grip cap on the bottom side of the stock
The picture of the stock and my grubby finger is showing a section of laminate that is slightly proud of the rest of the stock, you can snag a fingernail on it
A white scuff on the black spacer between the stock and recoil pad
Some light discoloration on the top of the barrel just in front of the fore end.
Weight is 6.5lbs on my uber accurate cabela's meat scale. No J-lock. Original three screw walker trigger that still has varnish on the screw heads and the accompanying remington trigger pull (I'm not sure how I was ever able to kill ground hogs with this thing)
Sorry for the wordy post, but I picked this rifle apart while describing it and probably make it sound a lot worse than it is. I tried to photograph everything as accurately as possible and overall I think it's a beautiful rifle. Feel free to ask any questions or let me know if you want any more pictures of anything specific. PM me for a phone number if you want to discuss the rifle by phone.
I'm not sure how to price this as you don't see many of the LSS model sevens since they were only produced from 2000 - 2003. Most of the ones I've seen for sale over the years have been chambered in 243 or 7mm-08 and they've been few and far between.
$900 shipped to your FFL from an individual.
