Just read an article in SHOOTING TIMES magazine on this rifle.. overall fit and finish seems to be good. Accuracy sucked per the author.. will post more laster today..

Per the article, of the various loads fired only one was 1 1/2".. most were in the 2.5 to 3" area at 100yards..

The author stated it is a "stalking" rifle and tried to justify the poor accuracy a bit stating most shots would be 250 yrds or less.

Love the design and caliber.. but in today's world, and for that kind of money, I expected more and frankly there is no reason it isn't.
