Gents, I am in a divorce at the moment and have to sale some of my prized possessions.
For sale as follows
Savage BVSS12, rechambered to 223 Ackley Improved by Kirby Allen of Allen Precision Shooting,in my opinion,one of the best gunsmiths in existence today with 4x16 Millett optics.She is a .6-.8 shooter with 50 grain Nosler ballistic tips and Varget.
Comes with Redding FL and Neck dies, brass and loaded bullets so ya can see for yourself what a sweetheart she is. 322 rounds fired through her.
A custom 6mm Remington built and she is a nail driver. 721 action, Gartman barrel,heavy benchrest stock and a brake.Comes with a 6x18 Redfield , Redding neck and RCBS full length dies and my load data as well as bullets for her. She drives .5 and less dependent on how much I shake on the day I shoot her.
A Marlin 45-70 1895 blued ,dies and loaded rounds with my accuracy load.I`ll give ya a cheap scope on it but I want my 4x Redfield off of it.
A 25-06 Ackley Improved Custom built on a Mauser VZ-24 action with 26 inch Shilen heavy barrel, synthetic realtree stock,Timney trigger with side safety.Built by one of the best who ever turned a lathe and my 600 yard varmint rifle-less optics as I am keeping them.
Redding dies for it and I`ll throw in loaded rounds, brass and my data.
she shoots and can hold her own to 600.
Asking price is 1700 for all or I will price them higher per piece.I ask for pickup rather than shipping to your ffl.I`ll negotiate price but only upon you and I looking at them in person.
Gents the cheapest of the bunch is the 45-70 and well worth what the average price of the four is.
If I didn`t need to sell em, no way you`d touch these rifles for this price.
Gene

Oh mercy, sure hate to see you have to part with your irons sir. Tough call. I considered selling a couple to help finance the trip to pick up our son but things worked out. We are making it. If you can then please keep your rifles. They are arms and then there are arms. Sounds like you have some very nice ones. Some things I have never sold, guns and steel beams. Guess I am a scrounger. Hope things get better for you so you can retain your shooters, wc

Thanks Countryboy.I appreciate it.Fellers I have many many rifles,43 at last count.I won`t sell any of my family heirlooms or my "work" rifles but the ones I don`t truly need I will.
The 25-06 Ackley is still with me .The fella couldn`t get the money and I wouldn`t budge.I thought he was gonna cry when he asked for a 100 less and I stuck it in the back seat of my f-250 and told him,"I aint gotta sell it that bad and I gave you half off what she was worth at 500 bucks.
Choppersdad, I`ll send ya pm tonight bud.I am swamped with stuff at the moment but if ya want her,I`ll take her off the market,.
I think shes 1 in 12 twist.She`s marked 244 Remington aka 6mm Remington, she doesnt like 100 plus grain bullets but 85 grain Sierra Gamekings,80 grain Sierra Varminters..Katie bar the door she will tear ass on paper or critters with IMR 4320.

umm mark ,keep in mind plz that at the moment our amigo ( and founder) life is a lil topsy turvy ( divorce and separations can do that to a body )if u havent already i'd suggest sending ur fone # with ur pm or asking for his as well as a lil bit of patience and allowing for time zones and working schedules to coincide , if u have umm first dibbs on one i'm fairly certain that u'll be first in line ( i'd like to go for all of them -at that price only a fool wouldnt - but my funds for the last year or so have been in their own separation proceedings [dratz]
edit for add...soz tg i was typing this as u posted ur reply

Thanks fryboy..
appreciate it man,fellas if I don`t answer very fast,bear with me.I have a job that is beyond demanding,70-80 hours a week and 20 men and their families that I have to worry about feeding every week.Finding and doing work so that they and myself have a job every Monday and a check on Fridays is imperative.
When I get a minute to look up and hit the HB, I assure ya I am here.
I have a mountain of shit in the middle of my living room floor and my boy and two dachshunds sleeping on a couch as we are trying to unpack,throw out shit we don`t need and sell off stuff that is worth a buck to get out of the way.
As Fryboy said,its hectic right now and I`m on my last nerve with all this horseshit happening around here in the personal life, trying to work and still handle business for me and my boys around home and get the youngest to school,fed and make sure hes alright.
Bear with me fellas,I apologize as I`ve always been around often but right now its a ****ing mess for me.

Rifles I advertised are sold gents.
Sorta hurt me to sell em at the price I did but I am on my feet fellers.
I can git on with business and I got 40 some more to keep.I thank you all from the bottom of my heart that took interest in them.They were all splendid pieces of weaponry that had killed meat for me and like a good horse were able to be sold in a time of need for me.
