I have bought and sold here for years with no issues. I prefer a check I wait till clears, usually 2 or 3 days, but will take also take zelle.
I will also need an FFL or will sell FTF in Houston TX area. FFL must accept from an individual with a copy of my DL and receipt.
This started as a 257 Weatherby Vanguard First Light edition. 26" fluted barrel with removable break and thread cover, I have the cover on it now. It is cerakoted a vaery nice coyote color.
I added a Timney trigger, it has the 3-position safety.
I then fully bedded it, action and bottom metal into a Mcmillan Mcswirley camo standard fill Mcm Hunter Stock.
It is a great gun, LOVES 100 TTSX, 80 TTSX, 85 Ballistic tips, 110 Accubonds and 110 Interbonds. You can get any of those to shoot sub MOA in this gun. the 100 TTSXs and 110 Accubonds were .6" 3 shot groups. I shot a sub 4 inch 600 yd yard with the gun. 10 X scope off a pack prone.
It didn't like some 75 grainers I tried.
About 250 down the bore.
I have TONS of bullets, ammo and brass I will offer to the buyer of the rifle first, so until it sells don't ask.
Gun is like new and weighs 6 lbs 15.8 oz naked.
AMMO
Factory Ammo - Custom Loaded by Safari Arms a boutique loader - I got with the gun shoots great, 100 Barnes ttsx, 75 rds
Weatherby 80 TTSX - 17 rds
So 92 rds Factory
The cheapest factory ammo at Midway is $75 a box btw with cup/core bullets.
My Handloads Loads - I have been loading for over 30 years, I am an engineer by trade and I am meticulous, I only use a single stage and weigh each charge. I used fed #215 mag rifle primers.
100 TTSX Loads - 69 gr, IMR 7828 SSC, gun loves this load - 22 rds
72gr, H-1000, 2 rds
69 gr rl-22, 5 rds
110 Accubond loads - 63.7 gr IMR 4831, loves this load, 13 rds
65 gr IMR 4831, 5 rds
75 gr, H-1000, 3 rds
117 Hornady sst loads - 65 gr IMR 4831, , 3 rds.
My loads 53. all premium bullets
The base first light rifle in the plastic stock is 950 ish real world price, the timney 150 ish and the MCM 600 ish these days.
Asking $1250 shipped alone for the rifle, add $250 for the 7 plus boxes of ammo. The ammo is NOT for sale separately.
I have brass and dies I can talk with the buyer about.
I have more pics I can email or text.
Also remember Shipping costs are nuts anymore.
Thanks Spence
