Don't you mean "With the right bullet, nothing is safe, Rifle"

phurley5Paul ----- Thanks for the information, I will make a call for details. A custom barrel and stock gets the value. Not crazy about the 700 unless a replacement safety has been installed. ----- Rich, I appreciate the thought. I already have a spare, but with six grandsons, why not one for each, with a visit to the Rift Valley someday.

Good shooting

dronofrioI saw it there yesterday. It is a Shilen barrel, and I am pretty sure it is a Mcmillan stock.
It is a very nice rifle, but I just can't justify a 358 STA.

Strut10Crap!!

About 6 months too late.

Sure would love to have an STA to play with. Gotta be about the ultimate "do-all" rifle short of DG.

paul garrettdronofrio: Thanks for filling in details. My memory banks aren't the same anymore. It is indeed a Shilen bbl. This is a heck of a deal for a guy who wants a long range thumper. If I didn't have a 375, I might buy it myself.

dronofrioIt has been there at least 1 month, I actully went in there to look at it Wed. but walked out with a like new Kimber 8400 classic 270 wsm for a price that could not be beat. Otherwise it would have come home with me.
