WTS High Tech Customs - 338-06 AI - Win M70 with Ammo & Reloading Components

[mercerbear]

Hi guys,

I have this crossposted on LRH, where I originally purchased it a few years ago from a member there. Here are the details:

This is a custom .338-06 Ackley rifle built by Rich Reiley at High Tech Customs. The foundation is a 1980-vintage Winchester Model 70 receiver. Of course, the action was blueprinted. It wears a #5 Lilja straight-fluted barrel that is 25" total length including the brake. The brake is Rich's signature slim-line brake, which is threaded. The bolt is spiral fluted. I'm unsure on the brand of trigger, but it has zero creep and pulls at 3 lbs 2 oz. average of 5 pulls. I'm not 100% sure on the stock brand, but Rich made his own stocks in the early days before selling his molds and technology to Bansner. The stock is painted black with tan speckles and has a nice sculptured cheekpiece. The receiver is nicely bedded into the stock. The stock also wears a Caldwell pic rail bipod adapter. The LOP is 13-3/4" and the stock wears a Decellerator pad in excellent condition. All the metal is in black Cerakote. The complete rifle weighs 7 lbs. 5.3 ounces. The only blemishes anywhere on this rifle are some wear on the fluted bolt shaft, normal scope mount tracks on top of the receiver that your mounts will cover, and two very small scrubs on the bottom of the bolt handle. That's it. The barrel, stock and bottom metal have zero blemishes.

I have not fired this rifle since I bought it, so I can't attest to the round count or accuracy. Because of the unique caliber, it's probably safe to say the round count is low. Rich's rifles are guaranteed to shoot sub-MOA with premium ammo and I'm sure this one will meet that requirement. The only reason I'm selling it is I bought a Honda Pioneer last week and some toys have to go.

I'm selling this rifle as a package. This is what you get:

• The custom .338-06 AI rifle
• A set of $175 Redding dies, the 3-die set number 84437.
• A full box of Weatherby factory .338-06 ammo in 210gr Partitions
• 50 Norma fireformed .338-06 AI brass with a handful primed.
• 13 standard Hornady .338-06 brass ready for loading and fireforming
• 26 Hornady .338 185gr GMX bullets"
• Game Reaper Win M70 LA 1" Mount - Model 10600
• Quality Cartridge .338-06 Ack Imp Unprimed Cases - 2 packages of 20 each
• 338-06 reloading manual

I am looking to send it down the road to someone who has more time to shoot and reload for it than I do. It is a really nicely done custom rifle and the builder is still in business in case a problem were to arise.

I am asking $1,900 shipped to an FFL.

Please reach out with questions or offers.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Feel free to shoot me trade offers.

Custom rifles or nice factory set ups.

Bergara premiers, Sakos, Barrett Fieldcrafts. I can add or accept extra cash where it makes sense.

Long or short action, standard or magnum bolt faces are all fine for me.
