I hate to drag up old threads like this one but I have got my hands on one plastic stock marinecote put a cheap set of scope rings on it and with 15 shots destroyed both rings and back base never use cheap rings on heavy recoil rifles. Replaced rings and bases with Talley light weights. Loaded 5 rounds and went to range and was rewarded with 1st shot 8" high and after adjusting scope a 4 shot group less than a inch.
This rifle is a keeper. There is very little information on the Internet about this rifle so I figured I would chime in. If anyone has experience with this combination please let me know what you have found.
