7mm Dakota custom rifle **SOLD**

I am doing more catch-and-release hunting (wildlife photography) these days. So I am selling some of my rifles. Here is a link to Chris Matthews site where he has graciously posted a picture and description for me.

Len,

I know this is off topic, but hey, it will keep your post @ the top [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img].

What bullet did you shoot in that thing and what velocity did you get.

Heck, maybe we can just finance this rifle right along w/the Vector. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Hey Len,

The more I think about it the more your rifle interests me. Could you email me with a little more info? Action model, and how it would be shipped? (case wise) If brass is included? Groups? Base and rings included?

Thanks alot

Jason

The Nesika M action with Jewel trigger has a base but not rings. Total cost of the action was about $1,800.

I just now realized that Chris' picture shows an earlier 32 inch black barrel. The current barrel is 28 inch polished stainless as Chris' description accurately mentions.

Shipping would be at buyer cost to your FFL. Included, however, would be a simple plastic hardshell guncase. Custom bushing dies are included but no brass or bipod.

Chris Matthews built it and, as you know, he guarantees 1/2 moa groups.
