Custom 280 Ackley

[brockel]

Its that time of the year again where I move on from this years rifle. This one is a tough one to part ways with as it’s a well balanced rifle and a fun one to shoot. Gun is a Remington 700 stainless bdl with McMillan hunters edge stock, 1-9” Brux #3 25”, timney trigger, and holland recoil lug Gun has been shot less than 200 times. Has a couple very minor hunting scuffs on barrel finish. Comes with Redding FL dies. Bare gun $1700 shipped or as it sits now with leupold vx5hd 3-15x44 with windplex reticle and Talley rings $2400 shipped

Yea, with groups like that I would sell it too. Beautiful rifle and great caliber.

Brockel has commitment issues just because he lets these pretty girls go doesn’t mean they are not good. Quite the contrary if you’re in the market for a long range set up here’s your chance at a great price for what it is.

Rifle of the year is an interesting idea.
Only problem is, I'd have ended up with about 40 rifles in the house by now.....................................

Would depend on the weight of your 308. Equal weight rifles your 308 is going to recoil less

Yep! IME powder charge weight matters in recoil amount.
