Title says it, custom built Remington 700 short action trued and blueprinted by Parish Davis of Great Southern Gunworks of Mobile Alabama, has a Broughton 1:8" twist 5C barrel with a finished length of 28" in black Duracote, with a XLR Industries Carbon chassis. Rifle has had exactly 100 rounds down the tube and will come with a forester bullet seating die and a Redding type S bushing neck die, 200 empty cases, 100 fired, 100 unfired. will also include a 20moa IOR valtada scope base. trigger is stock but has also been massaged down to 2lb pull.
In testing I was able to find a group shooting in the single digits for the ES that was able to consistently maintain 3/8moa accuracy, and another load that was able to bring the groups into the .2" range at 100 all day but the ES increased to around 20fps
best combo found so far was either 105gr bergers or swampworks jlk (both equal in terms of accuracy) with exactly 37gr of rl17 as I was unable to find H4350 to try in it at the time. the swampworks come out at a lower velocity due to a shorter bearing surface but this load will get both bullets into the 3000fps range. asking $2500 obo to the ffl you choose or would trade for a vortex razor hd genii 4.5-27x56 with ebr2c reticle in mils only. no interest in other rifles or scopes. I can be reached at 251-295-4766, feel free to call or text any time! thanks in advance, James.
