Same here, sort of.

Had a 20" Target model and it was a fine shooter, good for bench work or over the hood of a car but way too muzzle heavy for carrying.

Sold it and got their "Tactical" model with the 16" heavy barrel and Hogue stock and also comes with a bipod that IMO would be better sold with the longer Target model. That 4" shorter barrel handles much, much better. Still enough heft out front to hold it steady but the balance is much more between the hands.

Plenty accurate enough with decent ammo and superbly accurate with good match ammo. I bought that rifle, ordered an SWFA SS10x42 scope and two days after the scope arrived used the combo to win Overall Match Aggregate Winner at our club's annual .22 Silhouette championship, that combines a 100 and 200 yard match.


Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery.
Hit the target, all else is twaddle!
