Up for sale is a 6.5 PRC built on a Borden Alpine short action with a Wyatts Baney box. Proof Research 24" 7.5 twist sendero contour barrel cut with Alex Wheeler's spec reamer. Muzzle threaded 5/8-24 and a SRS Ti Pro brake. Barreled action has a Rifle Basix trigger and is pillar bedded in a JGS Composites carbon fiber stock. Rifle and scope weigh 9lbs. 4oz, that would put the bare rifle just over 7lbs.

Barrel is broke in and it shot factory Berger ammo right around 1/2"-5/8" @2785 fps. Loaded up a known load that has worked in previous rifles and it shot under 1/2" @2935 fps.

Bare rifle without the scope and bipod is $4250 plus shipping. I have components and can also include the scope and rings for a turn key package if needed.

Took the rifle out to verify accuracy at 500 yards after cleaning the barrel. Cold bore shot on a freshly cleaned barrel was the low one, then 3 shots piled up in under 2"

Between barrel break in, shooting a couple different brands of factory ammo, and load testing some reloads, I'm guessing around 75 rounds down the tube.
 
Up top for an awesome shooting rifle that's ready for the upcoming hunting season. Will include once fired, prepped Lapua brass that was used in break in and load development.
