Never did shoot it but they were a Custom Shop rig with only 1000ish made and used JP triggers and I don't know whos' tube but retailed for around 2k in 99 or whenever they were made. The 6724 I bought in Jan of '98 retailed for $1049 then IIRC.

Hello everyone...new user here. I was contemplating selling my Colt Tactical Elite which I bought new about 14 years ago, and I was doing some internet research on it and came across this post. Also noticed that you're from South Dakota so I figured I'd jump in and post--if this is inappropriate I apologize and will glady delete the post.
I have not shot my Tactical Elite much...maybe 400 rounds, mostly prairie dogging here in SD. The barrel was broken in carefully, cleaning every 3-5 shots for the first hundred rounds. Shoots more accurately than I can, and really seems to love the 68 grain Black Hills moly-coated round. I'm just not doing enough shooting with it to justify keeping it around when there are other rifles I would get more use out of. Not sure what the going rate for one of these in excellent condition would be, but if you ever make it down to the Rapid City area, shoot me an email and you're welcome to come take a look at it and make me an offer if you're still in the market. I've got a Tasco Custom Shop scope on it as well (8-40X56, 30mm tube, 1" Tapco riser, gun is otherwise original). Really hate to sell it, but I don't need it sitting in my gun safe unused either.
Anyhow, great site--I look forward to snooping around and learning from what seems to be a very knowledgeable group of shooters.
