Correction: kelbly atlas tactical action.
Sorry about that typo.
 
Define “very accurate” in quantifiable terms please. Targets and load data if you have them would be nice as well.

I use Berger Hybrid OTM 130-grain bullets with a load of 38.8 grains of Varget, achieving a velocity of 2850 feet per second.
The rifle is fitted with Lapua small primer brass.
At my local range, which has a maximum distance of 1200 yards, she performs effortlessly, hitting targets at 1200 yards with the same ease as at 200 yards. The only limiting factor is the shooter.
This rifle was built by Chris Harris, owner and founder of Bullet Central. Originally from South Africa and now live in America, Chris crafted this rifle as a personal favor, as usual other gunsmithswork for him at Bullets Central building rifles for customers.
I am selling this rifle due to a family emergency.
I also have two additional PRS rifles available.
Please note that the scope alone is valued at approximately $2000.

Kind regards
 
I don’t know what “The rifle is fitted with Lapua small primer brass” means. Can you please explain?

That is means I used lapua brass for my loading. Usually 6.5 Creedmoor use large primers however Lapua brass use small rifle primers. For a reason that I don't know the small primers add to the accuracy of the shooting. Furthermore lapua brass is outstanding, you can reloading it 10 times and still as good as if was new.
Lapua brass made in Finland . These Europeans make some good quality products.
Kind regards

"...hitting targets at 1200 yards with the same ease as at 200 yards." is not a measure that is quantifiable. I'm not trying to be a PITA, but I am going to hold your feet to the fire on this. Every PRS shooter I know has about 3000 pictures of targets with their rifle posed in front of it.

BTW - I appreciate the load data and information. Interesting about the Lapua brass using small rifle primers.

Also, the scope is $2100 new. Yours is not new, it's seen 2700-2800 rounds and previously had an American flag wrap (or stickers, I can't tell) on it. You price it how you want, I'm just making an observation when it comes to how it's valued.

Do you mean like this?

Very nice. :-). Just like that. I thought that was the OP trying to post a picture of a completely different rifle. :-)
 
That's a really good package deal!
The Kelby Atlas takes pre-fit barrels too. So getting a new barrel is pretty simple and cost would be $6-800.

Indeed. They are dead nuts. All you have to do is screw them on. Engraving and headspace should be perfect.
 
I live 10 min from Kelblys and shoot at their range almost weekly.. All Kelbly built rifles are absolute shooters - no question about that... I am actually getting ready to have Ian and team build me a new rifle..

Sorry. I did not realize you was waiting for a reply.
Almost always I shoot the long range target during the compilation. Also my phone memory got near fill few times so I don't keep target pictures.

Kind regards

Okay, I just found one picture. That was during a competition and the target was 1350 yards and I swear I hit it lol.
It was a big ipsc target though, at the end of the red arrow.

Hello Doug,
I am Philippe from France and plan to go hunting Caprivi in 2026, Oct.
I have read on AH you had some time in Vic Falls after hunting. May I ask you with whom you have planned / organized the Chobe NP tour and the different visits. (with my GF we will have 4 days and 3 nights there)
Thank in advance, I will appreciate your response.

Hi Walden. Good morning from England, Chris here (The Englishman!) from Croatia. Firstly it was a pleasure to meet you and Michelle - a fellow Sanderson! I have finally joined AH as I enjoy it very much. Glad you enjoyed the hunt and your write up which I read on AR was very good indeed. I am sending on WhatsApp pics from Bojan of some of the animals hunted recently. Take care and best regards. CS.
