Was this a good deal on a 5r?

[Tomekeuro85]

I just set up a buy on a 5r for myself (though honestly I should not have but you only live once and I work hard and feel I deserved this haha)

Its a Factory Rem 700 5r less than 100rds thru it.
Badger 20moa rail
a second stock- new HS PSS stock.

All for $950 shipped.

Good deal?

Sounds pretty good. I'd take it for that, lol.

I've seen the new ones go for $11-$1300, but cutting below a grand, with the addition of a badger rail makes it a pretty decent deal.

Yes

The factory 5R HS stock would sell for 200-225 so that gets you a 5R at about $750??? Yup good deal.

Got mine new for $995 but yours is almost new + $120 rail +$300 stock so yes that's a great deal.

Oh and depending on the condition of the 5r stock you could sell it for $200-$250 and only be in it for $700-$750

Congrats on the new gun Tom, now you just need some time off work to come out and shoot it.

I just got my NF in for my 6.5x47L today, I'll be mounting it up when I get home.

If you've got time I might do some shooting some time during the week next week, what ever day is good for you is good for me.

If I had the ammo I'd shoot every day of the week.

thanks!

I actually just sent you a PM haha. We gotta get some shooting done in a few weeks once I get done with everything. I won't have to worry about a 3 foot wind drift anymore haha.


Sounds awesome on the NF, those things are great. What kind did you get?

Mil/mil NSX 5.5-22x56

I picked it up used here, it has a few marks on it but I'm happy as hell with it.

I looked through it last evening right at dusk and I was quite impressed with how bright is was compaired to how dark it looked outside.

What I mean by that is the image looking through the scope was actually brighter than the naked eye.

Now I just need to get some coyote hunting in to really test it out.
