Overall length, as shown – 75 ½"
Weight, as shown – 56#
No "performance data" are available on the .400/.416 Barrett Improved as all load development was done on the .400/.50 BMG. With the 45" barrel, and custom Cutting Edge/CEB, 480 gr. MTAC bullets, reached 3250 without issues; pressure problems going higher – can resolve with a small false shoulder to keep the case against the bolt face until the cases are fully formed. Issue did not appear during initial fire forming where I only used CoW and a small volume of Bullseye. Purchaser/reloader – as always, proceed with CAUTION!
Why I'm selling – moving on.
Price as a "set" - $6495 plus actual cost to ship (USPS ground, fully insured)- will need to be adjusted for any prior part out sale; check or MO only, I do not do PayPal or wire transfers. Before you gripe about the price, please take the time to price all this gear and top-drawer gunsmithing - and find out the associated lead times. My cost for the above was well north of $18,500.
Transfer must be conducted through your FFL and the action shipped to the FFL – everything else will ship direct to the buyer. The FFL needs to e-mail me a copy of his license. After I confirm the FFL is current and that the FFL's shipping address matches the ATFOnline database, and your check or MO clears my bank, I will promptly ship.
Please address detail questions to [email protected]. Some sites have limited photo-posting. Serious buyers, please e-mail for more pics - please be specific as to what you are looking for. Thanks for considering purchase of this excellent gear.
