SOLD Savage PTA RB/RP complete rifle in 5/35 SMc

[bowfisher]

Savage PTA, bedded in the normal stock they came in, Rock Creek 1-12, 26" long. 5/35 SMc is a 20 BR with an improved shoulder for better ignition and less heat transfer, info can be found online. Can't remember the trigger I put in it, but it's about 9 ozs.

This was the first " hot rod " rifle I ever built, chambered by the late Larry Kuze ( MCI area ) it's been babied, approx 300 rds total, no long shot strings. I used it sparingly on PD hunts. I have 2 and thinning down to one. The muzzle brake is only for this rifle so I will include it as well. It shoots a variety of bullets very well, I ended up running 39 SBK's in it, at ludicrous speed.

$1100 shipped Conus. Mandatory FFL $50 extra.

There is a good write-up on this cartridge in July 2006 Varmint Hunter Magazine. Below is some load data from that write-up.

I actually had the privilege of meeting By Smalley who help design that cartridge. When he passed I was honored to buy one of the 5mm/35 SMc. This is a excellent cartridge and is fun to shoot. Good luck with the sale.

What is interesting is I have one on a PTA as well with dies and the whole works. Very accurate.
