Entire rifle built by wheeler accuracy, barrel work stock work action work all of it.

Defiance tenacity, completely gone through with Alex's normal magic

Action timed to triggertech special

Mcmillan hunter stock, mcwalnut molded 2 flush cups left, pic rail front, buffed and polished, glass bedded

Hawkins bdl- polished to match other metal

Wyatts cfe-12 internal box

Rock creek #4 21" 5/8x24 threads at .725 muzzle diameter 300 prc 1/10 twist (rocks are slightly gain twisted but starting at 10, finishing around 9.75 they told me)

Hawkins 3 port brake blended to barrel

Barrel is polished to match the action, bottom metal is polished to match too. Not a full mirror, but a nice shine.

Custom turned bolt handle by defiance to clear low scope rings, will include original handle also.

This is a fantastic rifle, I have just under 200 rounds on it and it. Just recently sped up and is ready to really develop a load. I am not a reloading fiend or guru, frankly I hate it. I tossed a book load of rl26 under a 215 shot a .4 at 100, a 2.5" group at 550 and went and started killing critters. It has never seen any other powder, or any other bullet.

Rifle weighs 7lb 9 ounces and is a joy to carry. Feeds like silk, and action.l is the smoothest I've ever owned.

Why am I selling? I'm not sure. Partly because my attention span is worse than a local squirrel. Mostly because I'm not going west for a few years and I don't need this for eastern whitetail. I'm trying hard to cut my collection down to necessities and as I'm competing more I can use the money for training and ammo for my less cool rifles. I hate to see this go but it's tool and it's not the tool my life needs right now, at least that's how I'm lying to myself. I'll probably build another next year :)

Rifle is 3200$ shipped lower 48, any pictured scopes are not included. In the other 2 step children states let's talk and see what we can do, I'll cover a normal share for sure.

These next pictures were from new so they have the original bolt handle.

Beautiful rifle, what is barrel length? What velocity on the 215's you said it sped up?
21" my load is 2820 and initially was 2780. I'm like 4 grains down from what berger told me max on phone iirc
 
I have been asked a lot about dies in pm.

I use a Redding s-type bushing die for sizing, and a Wilson micrometer comp die for seating (with an arbor press)

They can both be included for 100$, about half my cost
