I must say that I really like the gun. Its shoots extremely well and though it's a tad heavy it makes up for it in recoil reduction. I can shoot the thing all day and not worry about the recoil. The wood is better than decent and I bought it for next years trip to
RSA for plains game. I plan to take a model 70 classic in 30 06 too but I will get this ejection thing fixed or the gun will be gone.
