Riflecraft TMR1 .22/250 foxing rifle ready to go OR project

Right, here we are then.
This lovely rifle was built new for me by Riflecraft in 2005.
Blueprinted Remmy 700 action, Badger big bolt knob, jewelled bolt. Heavy barrel .22/250 threaded for moderator, Riflebasix adjustable trigger, bedded into Choate Super Sniper Olive stock with adjustable height cheek pieces and butt plate. Currently fitted with Harris bipod, Remington rings & bases and Fox Firearms illuminated dot scope.
I reckon I've put not more than 100 rounds a year through the rifle (based on a foxing trip say 40 out of 52 weeks (weather taking care of the rest) and sundry zeroing/wind practising sessions), so a .22/250 rifle with 700 rounds through and always cleaned after use.
I can supply load data for 55gn VMax and a few other 50/52gn target loads: for me this rifle spits out 55grain VMax bullets at 3630fps (selected for optimum group size).
I'm finding it really hard to post this advert and it's not being advertised anywhere else.
I'm asking £1200 for is as seen in the photos. I don't need a spare bipod or another spare scope so there's no interest for me in splitting it.
Available by separate negotiation, I can supply loaded rounds, empty neck sized and pocket reamed brass, 55gn VMax ballistic tips, 50/52gn BTHPs, reloading dies.
