Wilson Combat are now selling accurized FN Herstal Patrol Bolt Rifles (PBR).
Wilson Combat FN Bolt Rifle
It features a green Hogue stock, fluted barrel, fully bedded action and trigger work done by Wilson Combat gunsmiths. The PBR action is based on the Winchester Model 70 action and is chambered for .308 Winchester.
Wilson are selling it for $1995.

I founded TFB in 2007 and over 10 years worked tirelessly, with the help of my team, to build it up into the largest gun blog online. I retired as Editor in Chief in 2017. During my decade at TFB I was fortunate to work with the most amazing talented writers and genuinely good people!

CDNN Investments in Texas, www.cdnn.com, is selling essentially the same FN Patrol rifle in .308 for $599.99 with black Hogue stock or $699.99 in olive drab. This gun has an aluminum bedding block so I'm not sure what Wilson adds (if anything) in terms of custom bedding. Maybe nothing at all.

Of course, I'm sure Wilson Combat can justify charging $1995.00 ($1395.01 more than CDNN), by virtue of the spectacular job Wilson's smiths must do turning a screw to adjust the trigger.
Looking at the Wilson web site, I suppose it's possible Wilson upgrades the barrel, but I wouldn't bet on it.
Shop CDNN, and save enough to buy a Nightforce scope!
