Built by Deep South Tactical in Mississippi. This is the 2nd rifle they've built me and it's a dream to shoot. Very little recoil and it's accurate. I haven't even finished load development and it'll shoot 1" groups with a fluctuation of 8gr of powder, different bullets, different seating depths etc. once a load is fully developed I wouldn't be surprised if it shoots 1/4 moa (which is what Deep South tactical guarantees).


- Manners EH1 in swamp camo
- 16.5" 7.5 twist proof carbon sendero barrel
- Defiance Tenacity SA wsm bolt face black nitrided
- triggertech special single stage
- Hawkins hunter dbm
- Hawkins hunter "flush" mag
- leupold vx5hd 3-15 htmr reticle non illuminated
- Hawkins long range hybrid rings (mount directly to action and has 25 moa built in)
- 100 pieces of ADG 6.5 saum brass (72 pieces once fired, 28 pieces primed with cci 250s and ready to load)
- Redding 6.5 saum type S match die set with a SAC .291 bushing)


Just had this rifle built and it only has 72 rounds fired for break-in/load development. It seems to like 143 eldx's and 123 absolute hammers but haven't finished load development yet. I'm looking to possibly change directions a little. Not sure if I want to sell it or not but figured I'd see if there's any interest.

Asking $4600 shipped/insured complete with everything listed

If I keep the optic $3900 shipped/insured


***Rifle is pictured with a muzzle brake and hollow bolt knob but will come with a thread protector and the original solid bolt knob***

Great looking rifle- do you have a weight with, or without scope? Also, do you know what freebore or reamer specs? I assume short action and not XM length?

Scope weighs 20oz per leupold. As it sits in the photos posted it's 7lb 14oz. I don't remember the freebore but could find out on Monday. A 143 eldx is .020 off the lands with an oal of 2.890/2.220 cbto.

Can't believe how long that forend looks with that short little 16.5" barrel 😀.

What a sweet little handy looking rifle! Bet that's a dream to carry through the brush! GLWS

Enchilada minus scope - 3800 shipped/insured

Optic no longer for sale, rings are available however. I have an 18" 300 Norma on its way so I'd like to sell this.
 
Deep South does excellent work. Is that who built your 18" Norma? I'm waiting on my 787 action to get started on my Norma and was going to give Deep South a shot at building it for me.
