This was my budget long range build and it hammers with the 156 bergers. Excellent condition with exactly 100 rounds through the barrel with the last four going sub 0.5 MOA at 100 yards. Additions/mods include 3 port muzzle brake, Backstop recoil pad(14" LOP), SRS arca+pic rail up front, and I had my gunsmith retap the receiver mount threads from 6-48 to 8-40 for more strength. I adjusted the trigger down to just above 2# and it is one of the best factory triggers I've felt.
The 30mm Hawkins Hybrid LR Low rings(25 MOA) were purchased used but are in mint condition aside from residual loctite from previous owner. I torqued the receiver screws to 40 in/lbs and the rings to 25.
It weighs a hair over 9# as pictured and shot everything inside of 1.5 MOA, all factory ammo. The 143 ELDX Precision Hunter and Berger 156 EOL were both easily sub moa with the Bergers doing closer to half MOA groups at 100 and 250 yards. I shouldn't be selling as it's my most accurate gun but I live in mountainous VA and it just doesn't get used enough past 250 to justify. If you hunt primarily from a stand at longer ranges this thing is for you.
Included is the Arken EPL-4 4-16 mil in excellent condition, original box with all contents included...no visible damage to glass or scope body and functions flawlessly from day 1.
The only issue that I had with this setup was with extraction. Due to a high extraction angle the spent cases would often hit the windage dial and bounce back into the chamber about 50% of the time. Removing the windage dial cap helped a lot but it still happened occasionally.
5 and 7 round groups at 250 showed respectively, both sub .75 moa vertical dispersion with 156 EOL's, 5-10 mph crosswinds so a bit more horizontal dispersion, I was holding center of plate for all shots
