For Sale.
17mm 30/06 barrel with no iron sights. Factory magazine included.

I bought this barrel from Somarriba earlier this year. It was said to be unfired, although it had been mounted on a rifle and had a scope attached. I have not fired it myself, so it is just as I received it. Everything looks like new, except for the usual rub marks from having been mounted on a rifle and having a scope attached. If you bought a brand new barrel, the same exact marks would be present after the first time you mounted a scope and installed it on your action. These marks can't be seen when the barrel is attached to the stock and a scope is mounted. However, since it's not technically new anymore, I'm selling it at a good discount.
These barrels are running anywhere from $1355 to $1500. Plus shipping.

My price is $1100.00 shipped to lower 48.

Thanks!

Toby, I’m very interested. Are the marks putting you off, or is the cartridge not to your liking?

I’ll take it pending questions answered

No sir. The marks would be present on any barrel once it's installed and a scope mounted. I just wanted to let everyone know that it's not completely as new.
I already have three other 30/06 rifles, so I decided to part with this one.
 
Great seller and that barrel might as well be new. Good price!
 
This was my first time buying from Toby. The man is a true professional. The barrel has been shipped less than 1 hour after payment. Thank you so much. Anxiously waiting.

It was dropped off today. You should have it Tuesday. Thanks!

Good to know that @TOBY458 won't hold you over a barrel........ :E Happy:

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Do you have any more copies of African Dangerous Game Cartridges, Author: Pierre van der Walt ? I'm looking for one. Thanks for any information, John [redacted]
