SportsmanNH Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 There is only one on gunbroker.com . Looks like a real nice gun . No bids with 3 days left . If it goes for close to the starting price it would be a great deal . There is no reserve price to meet either . https://www.gunbroker.com/item/920137368 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stubborn1VT Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 I believe Luberhill is looking at longer shots. Any reason why you have narrowed it down to .243? Why a semi? There are lots more calibers and actions out there that would do the job for less money and perhaps with better ammo availability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of that is my style of hunting. I'm cheap. You could save significant money on a bolt, even a wrong handed one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoots100 Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 South Paw new 7400 .243 rifle owner here. Looked around for a long time before I found a decent/non abused 243 for sale on not legs list in Virginia. I needed another semi auto for coyote hunting to partner with my .243 savage impulse predator. I couldn't stand carrying around a neutered AR anymore. The 7400 trigger sucked, so I sent it out to a smith in PA to make it a crisp 2.5 lb pull with no over travel and convert it to a LH safety. Added an EGW Pict scope base, extra mag and am contemplating on installing a kydex adj cheek riser, as the XG50 sits a little high in the ADM QD mount. Don't give up, as there out there and I'm sure more will become available as deer season's end across the states. I'll also keep an eye out for you, as we south paws need to stick together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
