Stealing the FS ad from when I purchased this rifle during the past summer.

I have been a bad boy and my boss has slapped me around and asked me (lol) to move a gun or two to make up for all the stuff I have purchased recently (actually, I think she knows how much the BVC taxidermy bill is going to be!).

Ray Montgomery in Grand Junction, Colorado built this rifle in 2006.

Specifications are as follows:

Rem 700 Action, Trued by Ray, with custom shroud.
Shilen #5 Chrome Moly Barrel, cut to 22" with protected crown
Remington Trigger w/trigger job (trigger is crisp)
McMillan Sporter pattern stock - Dark Green/White, 13 11/16" LOP w/ 1" Decelerator
Williams Steel 1-Pc Bottom Metal
Action, barrel, and bottom metal matte blue finish by Ray
Caliber marking is very nicely engraved by Ray
Rifle weight with bases is 7.85 lbs. 9.15 lbs with 1-6x Trijicon mounted

I'll include a set of Hornady FL dies

I have only function fired this rifle (about 30 rounds...PO reportedly put about 100 through it). It is very comfortable and manageable. The Taylor is a very efficient cartridge with relatively low powder charges for the power level achieved.

$1,375 plus actual shipping and insurance, with dies and two piece scope bases. I also have 350 various Barnes, Nosler, North Fork and Speer bullets that are available to the buyer at a good price.

Rifle currently wears a Trijicon 1-6X Accupoint which could be included for an additional $800.

I ship from individual to FFL.

All in all, a pretty compact, powerful and sexy rifle.

Let me know if I left anything out. I have not accuracy tested the rifle, but the PO reports sub MOA with his favorite load. I only shot it at 50 yards and it stacks them at that range, as you might expect from a Shilen- barreled and trued M700.

Tarbe,
Again, a beautiful rifle at a very fair price. Someone here should buy this before Toby 458 sees this ad! Ha! Ha! Ha!

If there is a 12-step program for rifle buyers, Toby needs to attend!! :)
 
This is an awesome rifle!
 
Nice rifle! But I just added a Ruger No1 Stainless 458 Lott and Winchester Classic stainless 375 H&H to the fold a couple weeks ago. My bank account needs a bandaid!

And what is smack dab right in the middle between the 375 and the 458?

Yup, the 416. :LOL:

Hell son, I will bring it to Dallas and hand deliver it to you, and you can take 6 months to pay!

Except knowing you, you would sell it before you even paid me for it!!!

And yes, I am the pot calling the kettle black! I have only had this rifle 3 months and I have bought 4 other rifles since.

You guys and your gun buying! You both should really be more responsible!
 
I currently have a Ruger No1 458 Lott, Winchester 70 458 Win., Winchester 70 375 H&H, Zastava 9.3x62 and a Beretta Highlander 12 Ga that I haven't even shot yet! Of course, the Zastava is already sold, pending funds, but who's counting?

Yes, you clearly need a 416. And the Taylor puts you in a very select and well-regarded cohort of riflemen with refined taste and common sense.

:)

Which is why I have to sell it...I have neither refined taste or common sense!

I believe the 416 Taylor also makes one irresistible to women!
 
Wow, nice looking rifle! I see why you are selling it though. A little flashy for a Missouri lever gun boy like you :ROFLMAO:
Ray does good work, I’m sure it’s a solid rifle and a good shooter.

Blahahaha! Outlaw Josie Tarbe
 
I already own a 416, and don't need any more ladies to spend my hunting funds!
As they say, I’ve spent most of my money on women, booze and guns then wasted the rest
