I've had one in .308 Win. for a couple of years.

It shoots well with handloads. I have the 18" barrel, and use the conventional position for the rings, and use it with a suppressor most of the time.

It is heavy for caliber, and there are a lot of rough edges to abrade your hands, knuckles, etc.

The bolt may feel rough if you're used to a nice Winchester M-70 or Sako, but it smooths out with use.

Shoot straight, shoot often, but by all means, use enough gun!
