Anything in 6.5 Creedmor needs an accountant to keep it in ammo.

It had better be - they want 13.5k for the thing.

A good accountant can embezzle that much in no time at all.

True.
But this particular rifle is chambered in .308 Winchester.

You do get a custom leather briefcase with that price, so you need to factor that in.

The optic alone is nearly $2K. A little out of reach for your average accountant.

Stop by the Holland & Holland gun room in Dallas some time if you want to see some truly high-dollar rifles.
Not that I can afford this one even, but it’s in the realm of “yeah, I could sell the car and ride a bike”, whereas the H&H are so far out of the question it’s a matter of pure abstraction.

*** 6.5 Creedmor ***
When Obama put the squeeze on ammo makers and the market dried up, our local store which used to have plenty of ammo, only had empty shelves, but plenty of 6.5 Creedmor ammo. No one had rifles for it.

I have to laugh, on one of my Arizona firearms forums, there was a democrat stooge with the screen name Accountant.

Bolt action slows you down some if you have multiple assailants with which to deal.

I’m disappointed; I thought it was gonna be tailored for shooting accountants. I don’t really have any accountants to shoot, but was anticipating that the next gun in the lineup would be the Lawyer Rifle. 🤨😂

I’ve seen two movies of that type by Affleck, I think he fits that type of role extremely well.

Ok, the thing 'looks' dope, but I have my doubts about accuracy/repeatability with the barrel being removable.

So would assembling it from the briefcase. I don’t think it’s meant to be used up close.
To: absalom01
I thought this would be the IRS rifle that Obama ordered for the department.
