and yes I own a mauser and a howa and have handled and shot high dollar stuff. but for banging around in the truck, varmint hunting in the mud and dirt, this one does the job. I have shot 3 others, two 270's and another 243...all shot very well, five shots under an inch.
just sharing this info since the other "budget" rifles get mentioned here and this one doesn't even though in my opinion it's far better than the others.
