Update 5/4: Nightforce scope has been sold. Still selling the rifle.
---------------------
Would like to sell my custom 300WM rifle as I have ended up spending most of my time with my other rifles. The rifle is great for long-range precision shooting/hunting. Here are the details:
Rifle: Asking $2000
I have shot roughly 300 rounds with the rifle and with the optimal load it shoots sub-0.5MOA groups. I have been shooting 208gr Hornady ELD-M bullets from Nosler brass and H1000 (76.4gr) getting 2840fps with no signs of pressure.
Note: The CIP length chassis and magazine give freedom to load long ammo if needed.

Would like to sell my custom 300WM rifle as I have ended up spending most of my time with my other rifles. The rifle is great for long-range precision shooting/hunting. Here are the details:
Rifle: Asking $2000
- Caliber: 300WM
- Weight: Rifle + Scope weigh 14lb. The scope alone weighs around 2.4lb (ref. new F1 model per NF website) so rifle alone should be around 11.6lb.
- Action: Remington 700 LA Stainless Steel
- Barrel:
- Bartlein #4 Bull Sporter. Stainless Steel. 1-9.5 twist. 26” long.
- Chambered with Pacific Tool & Gauge (PTG) 300 WIN TAC MATCH FINISHER .210FB HSS reamer
- Muzzle break: American Precision Arms Little Bastard Gen II
- Trigger: Timney Calvin Elite 2-stage
- Stock:
- Manners MCS-T5A, right handed, adjustable cheek rest
- Elite tactical shell
- MCS-DBM mini chassis Gen 1 in CIP length
- 5x Flush cups
- Bedded to the action (see more details under “gunsmith work”)
- Magazine: AI CIP 5 rounds magazine
- Scope base: Picannity 20MOA (I believe from Seekings Precision)
- Gunsmithing work:
- The gunsmith of Bartlein did truing of bolt and receiver faces, chambering with PTG reamer and installation to action.
- An experienced gunsmith here in Washington (Jim Hawkins, now retired I believe) bedded the Manners stock. Before the bedding I was getting weird fliers so I brought the rifle to Jim. He found out that there was lot of tension in the system caused by the mini-chassis system. I decided to bed the stock, understanding that it defeats the purpose of mini-chassis system. However, I was already invested and wanted to prioritize accuracy. After the bedding the fliers were gone and it shoots great.
