EDIT: SOLD!
338 Allen Xpress FS - $2500
For sale is a 338 Allen Xpress (338 Lapua Improved) built by Kirby Allen. FL bushing die and Forstner Micrometer Seating Die included. Ship to your FFL in CONUS only. Shipping determined between parties and paid by buyer.
Specs:
-29" Rock Creek 1:10 Medium Palma heavy fluted barrel - approx 1000 rounds down tube (rarely shot more than once in 5 min.)
-BAT MACHINE HR PIC with integral 20 MOA rail and integral lug, CAD customized by BAT to take the 4" Wyatt's box (first one they did this with) - there is a little galling on the bolt lug
-Wyatt's 4" box
-PTG bottom metal (bedded)
-Jewel HVRTS trigger at about 6 oz.
-Manners EH1 Elite Tactical in Midnight w/ BDL mini chassis (makes it much stronger--two previous stocks were broken by this rifle until the BDL mini chassis)
-modified DE adjustable cheekpiece
-bedded by Tom Manners himself into this stock
-Allen Precision PainKiller Medium muzzle brake
Scope and rings not included and bipod and bipod rail not included. Integral Manners factory screws for your own rail.
This thing has still been shooting great with groups in the .1s to .3s regularly when I did my part with 103g N570 pushing a 300g Berger EH at 3030 fps. This load had taken a number of critters the past several years. Before that I was running 101g Retumbo, but the N570 seemed to have significantly better consistency and had a better velocity. It almost go boring slamming gongs past 1000 yds.
I have FL bushing die/Forster micrometer seating die, properly sized threaded brass for Hornady OAL tool. Dummy rounds for trim length, chamber length, load data/recipe, etc. With N570 and Fed 215M primers and Lapua brass, this thing should be nearly turnkey and shooting well with a good (NF!) scope and you can see from the pics that I used two sets of NF rings--the front set pushed forward in the rail and the rear set pushed backwards in the rail. This rifle had also broken a set another manufacturers set of 'high end' rings as well as two other stocks, however the recoil is just fine. My (at the time) young girls aged 10 or less shot it long distance without complaint...man up, you guys!!
My 13 yo girl three years ago shot it a few times in prep for an elk hunt. The grown men at the range would cringe and she'd be like 'that was not an issue'.
Prob forgot something here. Ask questions.
