    **RIFLE SOLD, WILL LIST AMMO AND OTHER ITEMS SEPARATELY**

    I'm in New Haven and willing to travel up to one hour for a meetup.
    Buyer must be legal to own firearms, all local/state/federal laws apply.

    Howa 1500 .308 WIN
    - Great used condition, round count is 344
    - 20" threaded heavy barrel, #6 profile (factory threaded 5/8"-24)
    - Hogue black stock (factory pillar bedded), new take off from another rifle
    - Timney trigger #611 (3-position safety, single stage, adjustable 1.5-4lb pull)
    - Howa clamp on bolt knob upgrade
    - Nikko Sterling 1" rings

    LOVE the rifle but switched to 6.5 Creedmoor instead. I've had some sub-0.5moa 3-shot groups and also some 0.5-0.7moa 5-shot groups at 100 yards. With me behind the trigger, I'd call it a fairly consistent 0.6 moa gun (with me being the variable). Some good results from limited testing at 200/300 yards. I was just on the end of getting a load developed with Varget and 168gr ELD-M bullets. I can share with the buyer: targets, ammo testing results I've done and also what reloading data I've accumulated so far. I'm a new reloader, so a more experienced person would have better results.

    Buyer has the option to purchase factory ammo this rifle likes: Federal 168gr SMK .308 and Geco 168gr Match 7.62x51.
    If the rifle sells without the ammo, I'll list the ammo separately, but I want the rifle buyer to have first chance on the ammo.


    Rifle
    As listed above - $600


    Ammo:
    Fed 168 SMK - 144 rounds for $216 ($1.50/rd)

    Geco 168 Match - 107 rounds for $134 ($1.25/rd)


    I also have a bunch of brass, some bullets, Redding Premium dies, Dillon 550 caliber conversion kit and maybe a few other things I might be willing to part ways with as well if someone is interested in reloading for 308.

    Not looking for trades at this time, but if you have reloading stuff pertaining to 6.5 CM or .223 REM, I "might" be interested.
