PTG bottom metal

Sniper gray cerakote

Jewell trigger at 1.5#

I have this identical rifle with a #4 barrel. One of the best rifles I've ever owned - I shoot 140 partitions in mine for elk and muleys and they hold together great at 3350 fps. You can get 3400 fps with the 140 Bergers but they frag bad on impact at that speed - Redding makes dies, Paul and they weren't hard to find. I neck up .257 Wby brass but you can neck down .270 wby brass also.

Willing to sell rifle without scope for $3700. Still firm at $5000 for scoped rifle.

Are you sure that it is the same cartridge. I was thinking along the line of the new case based off of the 300/340 WBY case. I think it is actually a factory chambering now.

Could be wrong, though.

Yes, I'm positive. I've had mine for 5 years now - that .300 wby/6.5 wildcat hasn't been made by McWhorter to my knowledge.
