Sold Stainless .284 Win X-Caliber barrel (savage small shank), brass and dies

[Newtosavage]

Got the .284 Win bug out of my system I guess. I bought this barrel a few months ago from X-Caliber and it shoots extremely well. 1/2-3/4 MOA routinely with 150-grain GMX and ELD-X. 139 LRX's shot around 3/4-1" but I only had a few powders to try. I am NOT selling because this barrel won't shoot. It is absolutely a shooter. I've put 90 rounds through the tube and it's been consistently under an inch with every combo I tried. I'm just in a simplifying mode right now.

X-Caliber stainless 22" straight .284 Winchester chambering with 1:9 twist. Fits Savage small shank and other actions like the Bighorn, etc. Barrel weighs 2 lbs. 5 oz. and is considered X-Caliber's "featherweight" contour.

Using a Savage short action (that has a 3.00" box) you can load to 2.95" and kiss the lands with 150 ELD-X's

I will include 100 pc. of Peterson brass. Approx. 90 have one firing on them. There are 30 ready to load but you'll probably want to resize those since I pulled the bullets out of them.

I'm also including the Lee dies and shell holder+trimming die (unused).

Barrel cost me $360 shipped. Brass was $120 and the dies another $40 for a total of $520

I'll take $325 shipped for everything.

Skip the 12-week waiting period that I went through and build your .284 Win mountain rifle now!

I had a few questions so here's an update -

Barrel is .563" at the muzzle. Recessed target crown.

I forgot I do have a No-Go gauge for .284 Win (you can use a sized case for the "Go" gauge). I'll throw that in for another $25.

So everything, including the No-Go gauge, for $350 shipped.

Up!

Getting the urge to just keep this. The listed price is already as low as I'll consider going. Don't really need to sell it. I'll just build another rifle I guess.

Decided to keep it and build another rifle. Thanks all.
