I've fondled but not shot one. If you are considering one, be advised the newest version with a 16in barrel and a much lighter synthetic stock will be out this year some time.
Also, if a LW/handy 308 is what you are looking for, Steyr has finally lowered the price on the original Steyr Scouts, still not cheap, but not $1800 any more. IIRC, wholesale is around $1200.
