Its a sporterized flip up that doesn't hit the scope..bolt handle and pretty much everything else have been customized..it is a sweet gun. Friend of mine owns it probably not even put 100 rounds thru it and it is a tack driver. Its been a safe queen since I know the guy. Since he is 6'7 and I am 6'0 I will have to cut down the LOP about 1 1/2 inches to 13 1/2. I then have to add the customized model 70 trigger. It's going for about 500 or so .
I love a 280. I have seen them perform great with 140gr BT kicking at 3000fps before with great accuracy.
BC are you delusional? a 280 kicking a 140 at 3000 Hmm. I might have to bring my chronograph with me to find out if I decide on it. WHat do you think is a better overall cartidge from deer to ELk... a 280 or an 06?
