Spec 8 For Sale

I’d love to take it for a test flight

Friend pabessi1:

Friend pabessi1, you ain't the only one.....a lot of folks would love to take SPEC 8 for a test flight...

Since it's been over 15 years since I built her, I wonder what condition the bore of SPEC 8 is in?

Bottom line:

SPEC 8 might possibly be a highly competitive RFBR rifle in today's world....

Or the bore could be ruined and SPEC 8 wouldn't shoot in a bucket...

So there's no way I'd bid on SPEC 8 unless I could shoot her first.....

Course that ain't going to be possible...

Anyone wishing to shoot Spec8 will have to come here , it's located in western New York, send me a PM.

Friend tomsher:

I don't do PM's.......so I'm responding here on the forum.

I assume you own SPEC 8 and if so have you shot her?

I built her over 15 years ago and at that time she was awesome.

But 15 years is a long time.

Thank you in advance, your LBK and pistol fool friend, Bill Calfee
 
It shoots well but I have not found ammo that it likes.
I meant that anyone wishing to shoot it should send me a PM.

Friend tomsher:

I'm sure I'm not the only one here at CYA wondering about your statement...

I mean, how can you know if SPEC 8 shoots well if you can't find any ammo she likes?

The silence is deafening.

Friend john prince:

I agree, the silence is deafening............SPEC 8 could only manage to bring $5,999.99....

I have shot several matches at Salisbury, I may get a chance to see it in action later this season.

I could not stand to watch it languish on GB any longer. It made my budget hurt but I wanted to do my part to support the Calfee and Spec Series legacies. I am obsessed with precision in any form. Mr. Calfee’s book gave me the foundation on which I continue to build my rimfire accuracy knowledge. I’m a happy customer.
 
The rifle came with a scope that mostly sells for $800 used, it was, in my opinion priced very fairly.
 
I’m hoping the barrel is still ok. I would like to change the spring and may need advice on what to use.
I will shoot it and make my “amateur assessment” keeping any tinkering to a minimum
….and yes, I have scheduled a test flight for Mr. Prince on his next visit to Salisbury. ARA Match Director Lawrence has my contact info.
