For Sale is a stainless Remington Model Seven that has a Shilen stainless select match, 9-twist, #1 contour barrel installed in 6.5x47 Lapua at 21.5 inches. The action and barrel work, including truing, lapping the lugs, etc. was done by Garland Gilbreath of Triple G Gunsmithing in Stephenville, TX. The bolt was "bushed" by Greg Tannel at GreTan Rifles. The laminated stock with a Remington Super Cell recoil pad has been bedded at the front receiver ring and rear action screw lug - the barrel channel is bedded 1.75 inches in front of the receiver, otherwise free-floated. The bottom-metal has not yet been bedded - this was an unfinished work in progress. The scope is a Sightron S-II 3-9x42 that was new before mounting and is in lapped and bedded Burris rings on a Burris base. The rifle with scope weighs 7lbs 13oz as best I can tell. Light enough to be pleasant to carry without recoil being a factor. The Sightron SII weighs about 21oz and rings and bases weigh about 4oz, so the rifle itself should weigh about 6lbs 4oz.
Round count is 48 with mild loads - best 100-yard group so far in Nosler 120BT's was 0.62" at 2779fps and 0.46" with Barnes 100TTSX at 3018fps - both loads with Varget and CCI450 primers.
Will also include 45 pieces of brass and a 3-die set of Hornaday New Dimension dies plus a Lee Factory Crimp die.
This will make someone a really nice little mountain rifle or a super, low-recoiling young shooters rifle.
I have a little over $1300 in this but will let it go for $975 or $875 w/o scope - shipped USPS Priority Mail Insured. Prefer payment by USPS money order or PayPal gifted funds (no fee to me).
