I thought I would shoot it more, but I just don't have the time right now. I don't have to sell it, but thought I would see if someone is interested in a turnkey setup. Rifle was built by Shoot Long Rifles out of Salt Lake City.

Rob's clients kill some true giants. It amazes me how they always seem to find these big bucks every year. I am very familiar with where they hunt and it is some of the most amazing terrain I have ever been in.
After a long wait on powder, primers, brass and mostly the weather, I was finally able to take out my new toy for some much needed range time. I loaded up some light loads to get a feel for the rifle and do a little barrel break in. What a dream to shoot. I can't believe how smooth this rifle...
6.5 GAP. Very interesting and capable cartridge. 300 SAUM necked down to 6.5. Pretty amazing speeds with a 140 Berger. And some amazing energy numbers as well.
