Full-Custom .300 WSM Winchester Model 70 By MG Arms Very Lightly Used

[shuter]

THE OPTIC AND RINGS ARE NOT INCLUDED...but the Warne steel scope bases are! Also included are a set of unused RCBS .300 WSM dies, shellholder, and 100 pieces of NEW Winchester-brand .300 WSM brass. This is a rifle I had built by Match Grade Arms in Texas in 2004. Have all paperwork backing up the custom work by MGA. Began with a stainless controlled-feed Model 70 Ultimate Shadow in .300 WSM, but got rid of everything but the action. MGA did the following work: Rebarreled to .300 WSM with a stainless #1 taper barrel; Installed/bedded their lightweight fiberglass stock in "charcoal camo" @13 3/4" LOP; Put a Teflon finish in black on all metal; Installed the MGA Super Eliminator muzzle brake with thread protector; Performed trigger job on Model 70 trigger. I also purchased and sent them both a custom stainless one-piece bottom metal assembly and machined stainless extractor from Williams Firearms Company, which they installed with the build. Cost for all of the custom work alone was $1,550, back in 2004. I have only fired factory loads through this rifle and have fired a a total of roughly 100 rounds over the years. It was sighted in and carried on 2-3 hunts, checking zero @ beginning of each of those seasons. The brake is very effective in mitigating recoil on this light rifle. Was set up to be the ultiimate light yet powerful all-around Western rifle for me, and I chose MGA because they've been around for so long and had a great rep for building light yet accurate rifles. Don't think you could do much better in that regard!your FFL. Thanks for looking!

Final price drop...$2,000 shipped within CONUS to your FFL. Take a look at the specs on this rifle...would likely cost cost $1,000-$1,500 more to put this together today, IF you could find a new Model 70 CRF action! At approx. 7.25 lbs bare, it's the perfect weight to carry yet not get beat to death when you shoot it. Somebody on here needs this rifle!

Hard to believe no one on AH wants a professionally built, controlled round feed Model 70 that's barely broken in!

For sure. I own two .300 Wby's already....any of the .300 Mags are terrific PG guns.
I just picked up a .416 Rem Win 70 Safari Express...so I will be selling guns now
