Something has to be wrong to be that cheap surely? Otherwise I'll all over it haha

Thinking some reloading or grouping issue if its not shot out is likely the case.


thoughts?

I take it, it is in Aussie ?

It shouldn't take long to sell, plenty of big rifles in Aussie.

Without a brake it would be fairly punishing, another reason it would be cheap....

It is possible it doesn't shoot that well, the Tikka recoil management system is pretty average for such a heavy recoiling calibre, another reason it would be cheap.

Buy it turn it into a single shot Edge, put a decent brake on it & you might be GTG......? or just wait & build one on a 700.....
