This is what happens when you still believe in Santa (and still have some money sitting around)
On another board, someone mentioned that a SR25 was traded in by the local sheriff's department. It was their sniper weapon. The price was not to be believed but I called. Sweet Baby Jesus it sounded awesome. Some eyes on the ground confirmed it was in great shape and it is.
The rifle came with a Blackhawk drag bag and a sniper data book. The rifle was sighted in with Hornady TAP. The included scope is a Nightforce 3.5-15 x 56 in KAC rings. The optical clarity is superb. It has the NP1-RR reticle.
The rifle is in excellent shape. The two stage trigger is very crisp. The only additions I made were the Magpul MIAD, tiggerguard and PRS stock.
The front tube is the standard fiberglass unit. I found the standard folding front sight and when it comes in, I'll have a notch milled out of the tube for it to fold into. (I know KAC offers the tube with the notch but this is easier).
The SR25 RAS is nearly impossible to get but no matter. There is a very good chance that after SHOT I will have a VERY special rail that will work just fine. I'll add the TD bipod and that should do it.
20 rounds were fired in anger today at some metal poppers and the rifle was dead on at 200 yds. This pleased me greatly.
Oh, and I may have bought some really cheap uppers (or 200 or so)
