Sold 6.5 Sherman Max parts / build

[browning442]

Was going to make a project out of this but not sure I’ll be able to for a while.

6.5 Sherman Max barrel - 300 rounds on it
24”, 8 twist, 5/8x24 muzzle w/ protector
Bartlein carbon fiber, m24
Barrel threaded for Remington action (NOT this particular action!)

Remington LA magnum action - pulled from factory Remington rifle.
A-prefix action
Factory .187 recoil lug
Huber 2-stage trigger
20 MOA Rail

6.5 Sherman Max dies - Hornady

My plan was to have my gunsmith check headspace and make adjustments as needed for this action to marry up to the barrel. OR route two, set back half an inch and have it rechambered in same cartridge or possibly 6.5 SAUM. I scoped the barrel and there is very minimal fire cracking, mostly in throat. Have pics for serious buyer. I’d run it another 1,000 rounds as is easily with no modification. This could make someone a nice 6.5 cal magnum of some sort. Have a smith touch up headspace, throw in a stock, and you’re off the the races.

$875 shipped for action, trigger, lug, rail, barrel, and dies, shipped OBO. Will only sell action if barrel sells first. PM for split package pricing.

Trades:
223 bolt face action, 223 shouldered prefit, KRG whiskey 3, Japanese or US made FFP optics in MRAD

What lug was it headspace too before?

Just screwed barrel in with .187 factory lug… it gets tight before the lug is snug which tells me they ran a .250” lug with the barrel.
