Backstory: the rifle started as a 300 WSM built by APR, which I just couldn't get to shoot. I shot about 100 rounds trying different factory ammo and reloads. APR then shot it and confirmed that we got the 1 in a million bad barrel from a very well known barrel maker. At that point, I had already bought a replacement 300 WSM rifle for my upcoming Nilgai hunt. APR made everything right, and rebarreled the rifle at no cost. I decided to go with a 6.5 PRC with the intention of selling the rifle since I already bought a replacement 300 WSM. I took it to the range to confirm all was well with the new barrel, and it's a shooter (completely different than the old barrel). I stacked 3 rounds during zeroing, and then shot a 5 shot group at 0.51" with off the shelf Norma ammo. The barrel has about 12 rounds on it, and action right around 100 rounds on it.

I was very tempted to keep this one... at 7 lbs 4 oz and 22", it is very handy and very accurate. It would make a great hunting rifle, or maybe an NRL light build, but I have a few 6.5 creedmoor guns at this point, and I don't think I want to add another caliber to my reloading setup. I might duplicate this in a creedmoor someday... So, I am putting this out there and seeing if someone might want to take it off my hands.

Replacement cost and everything that is included is listed below. I know I won't get that price of course, but providing it for reference.

Feedback: I have feedback here, ar15.com, and ebay going back many years with this username. These days, best practice is for us to facetime / zoom call before money changes hands, and I am more than happy to do that. I can show you the rifle, confirm I'm real, answer questions, etc.

Any other questions, let me know! Thanks!
