Good buy. A new Sendero cost the dealers around 1040. Dealers cost. the sendero's shoot very well, for that price, you can't go wrong.

Jump on it if you can afford it. I have a Sendero in a 300 win mag and it is a true tack driver. First group out of the box after sighting in measured around .75". After experimenting with a few handloads, it averages around .25" with the best group at .10". Everything as is from the factory with the exception of a muzzle brake. Hope you add one to your collection. Cool

+1 on jumping on that deal. Mine is a Custom Shop build with a 26" barrel and the HS Precision stock.

For that price grab it and run. I have a Sendero in 7mm Rem Mag use handloads (162gn Amax projectiles and 58gn 2213SC). It is a tack driver and shoots groups ranging from 0.1'-0.5" consistently.
It too is an early model Sendero (1998) - make sure you mount a good scope, you'll love it!!!

Last year I paid 560.00 for a older Sendero just as you described. Excellent rifles, it is the third one I have owned. Scary accurate with the 165 Accubonds and RL-22. The last one I had, I got almost 3000 rounds out of it. The throat was shot and it was still shooting close to 1/2 moa. Shot 176 groundhogs with it, in one summer.

SMACK I hear you, they are a feak of a good rifle. Mind you it took me close to 13 years to relaise I was using too light a projectile. For all that time I used 140gn Nosler balistic tips but they only averaged about 0.9 -1.0" groups and it wasn't until I read this website that I realised I should have been using 160-170gn projectiles. Ever since, then the Sendero shoots like a laser..

Love it!!
