    Very interesting and I have no idea if it is a 30BR with a changed shoulder or what it could be....

    Googling a bit indicates that the .30 Eargle is a 6.5 Grendel necked up and maybe tweaked somehow.

    It's only one lathe setup away from being any 30 you want...

    Same as the .30 Major with necks turned.

    ""30 Major is Based on 6.5 Grendel
    What's a "30 Major" you ask? This is Mike's own wildcat, a 6.5 Grendel necked up to .30 caliber. Mike writes: "The 30 Major is essentially a .070#8243;-long 30 PPC. With the great 6.5 Grendel brass available from Lapua, all you need to do is neck-up and turn the necks to prep the brass." Mike says it is very much like a 30 BR, but you just start with 6.5 Grendel brass instead of 6mmBR brass.

    The cartridge has one major benefit - it utilizes a PPC-diameter bolt face. That makes it easy to convert your group-shooting 6 PPC to shoot score with .30-cal bullets. Mike explains: "If you have a PPC, to shoot score, all you have to do is chamber up a [.30 caliber] barrel and screw it on your PPC.""

    Added:
    really doubt the stock is Bakelite, and tell LF she should list the weight in the add, very important in some classes/buyers.

    Be sure it includes the dies so that you have the tools to prep cases. Once fired in the chamber a match-grade neck sizing die is all you will need. The big question, that only you can answer, "does it fill a need in my armory?"

    In case you want to know the BASE price for JUST the "L" action and bolt is $1400.[:0]

    Lets say another $800 for barrel, $400 for fiberglass stock, $300 for trigger, $600 for misc. fitting and finishing.

    Someone put $4000 into that gun.
