Used 6.5 creedmoor Browning Xbolt Western Hunter, has been cut and crowned to 18". The stock has been shortened to 13" Length of pull, and modified to accomodate a side sling. Overall length of the rifle is now 37". Has Timney trigger upgrade. Talley lightweights. Extra magazine.
Comes attached to a Hawke Frontier 2.5-15x50 SFP Mil/mil. ($799 on Opticsplanet) The scope weighs 23oz, has illuminated reticle, exposed turrets with crisper clicks than the Vortex LHT that I had, also a bigger FOV and better glass to my eyes. Same no fault warranty as vortex.
Total package weight is 7lbs 10 oz.
The rifle is very handy in the woods. I shortened everything to make it easier to carry and get the kids behind it. I've had the rifle for about 6 years. The stock has some extra holes from me playing around with different sling and tripod mounting options. It shoots 3/4 MOA all day with factory 143eldx, and better with Barnes 120 ttsx. 800rds down the barrel. Only reason I'm selling is to fund another rifle purchase.
SOLD

That is a nifty little package!

Who did the cut and crown? Could it be threaded? Muzzle diameter?

Factory trigger available?

The work was done by me. I did a 90 degree crown and recessed it slightly with a crown lapping tool.
I was going to have an 11degree crown cut by my gunsmith, but my crown job has been so accurate that I left it on there.
The muzzle diameter is 0.643", that should be workable with 1/2x28 threads.
I have the factory trigger somewhere but replaced it because it started becoming inconsistent. tempImageoSfpgF.png

It gets very dim. Useable in very dark conditions. The entire reticle lights up and there is no internal glare, unlike the LHT 3-15 that I had.
