New Fieldcraft on the shelf

[Brent]

I went to Las Cruces yesterday to pick up my Muskox mount at Major Wildlife Studios and I decided to make a stop at Sportsman's to see if they had any reloading components on the shelf. While looking through the bone dry ammo and reloading shelves, I glanced over the gun counter and saw a brand new 24" 6.5 CM Fieldcraft staring back at me. Without even thinking about it, I told the clerk box it up. It's coming home with me.




BTW here is the Muskox mount.

Nice ox, but congrats on the rifle! How much was it listed for?? I suppose it was one they had on the shelves for a while?

I'll bet you're right. It had probably been on the books for while. I just don't think people knew what they were looking at.

They had it priced at $1850. My mil discount brought it down to $1757

What's the story behind the musk ox? Where did you get it? I'm hoping to go this year

I got got lucky and drew the Nunivak Island, AK tag last year. It was definitely an adventure.

Thanks for your service. Congrats on the Fieldcraft score and the Musk Ox.

Finally got this monster scoped up and sighted in. The first 3 sight in rounds with factory Hornady Precision 143s went into a .25 MOA clover leaf. I gave it 1 click down and 1 left for longer range validation tomorrow.

Oooh. That's a pretty little test target! Is that a Mark 5 on there?
