After much deliberation I've decided to sell this piece. I'm actually sitting in the woods holding this rifle as I type, but I just ran across a deal on a .260 85 Finnlight that I have been lusting after for a couple years now that I couldn't let go and I really can't justify owning 2 deer rifles this nice that are so similar.
I'm not gonna try to post pics right now so I'll just post a link to the rifle from where I bought it last year off 24 hour campfire:
http://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/8639961/2

This is a true sub-MOA ultralight rifle. It shoots 3/4" groups with factory Barnes TTSX 120's. That's all I've ever shot thru it but according to the gentleman I bought it from it shoots just as well or even a little better with 120 gr NBT's and Partitions.
The price is $1250 firm. Non negotiable. I'll leave it on aldeer for 3-4 days and if none of you guys want it I'll put it back on campfire and I think it will get gone pretty quick. If anybody wants it set up and ready to hunt I've got a 3-9x42 MEOPRO on it right now with a German 4 reticle. I'd sell the whole rig for $1500. Anybody that wants to come up here and shoot is is welcome. Bring a box of shells and have at it. Both scope and rifle are in excellent condition.
ONLY trade I would be interested in would be a Swarovski Z3 4-12x50 to put on my Finnlight.

EDIT: The serial number on this rifle is #00032. It was one of the first ones ever produced so Melvin Forbes was pretty closely involved in this first run. Close as you can get to a NULA without having to drop $2500 or more.
