Benchmark carbon 6.5/280ai

[kaseyfied]

Catch and release from this site. purchased this about 6 months ago for a friend that wanted it off a member here. Was not as adverised so my friend didnt want it. I had plans to play with it but never did. Rifle was built by benchmark barrels i called and confirmed that atleast..

-remington model 721 reciever fully blueprinted with a 1 piece PTG bolt which takes care of the common extraction issues with the 721 bolts
- PTG 1 piece fluted bolt with oversized knob, m16 extractor and tubbs fluted firing pin assembly
-stockys stock kryptek camo
-26inch benchmark carbon barrel, this barrel was back when benchmark outsourced carbon wrapping like ragged hole barrels does, 1/9 twist barrel with 3 port break timed to barreled action
-trigger tech primary trigger
-bdl bottom metal
-cerakoted fde which is in great condition

I will include some 280AI nosler brass i bought for it and a set of redding comp bushing neck die and microseater die

1900 shipped to ffl with all components

I did scope it and barrel has been shot very little. Previous person said less than 60. I would say around 100ish. Barrel also has a tiny bit of carbon missing which was not mentioned when i purchased it for my friend. Rifle also weights 9lbs...15ounces which was 3 pounds more than he told me. Which is the stock it weights prob 4 lbs lol. It is a nice rifle, just nothing that interests me currently

Is that bare metal showing? Not much carbon, that could be where the weight is coming from. Probably when Chris was wrapping their barrels.

Yeah not much carbon on it. That is correct that is what benchmark told me about wrapping.

He did a fine job for the most part on wrapping. I'm sure it'll shoot better than most shooters.

The barrel may be portion of it, but a lot of it is the stock. They are ridiculously heavy, nearly 4 lbs. With something like an EH-1, it would be 8 lbs 6 oz or so. Still on the heavy side, but much better ha ha

Agreed.. .. like insaid seller said it was less than 8 why my buddy wanted it. Then ghosted me after the sale.. doesnt matter now just want ger off the bench lol.. offeres? Action trades barrel trades? Partial trades
