Nice. Have one in ‘06, great gun.
Some claim FS guns don’t shoot as well as conventional guns. Mine is near MOA with Fed factory ammo, haven’t spent time working up loads. Too many other projects ongoing.

Nice. Friend has one in .257 Bob that shoots great.

Nice looking rifle. I had one in .06. Should not have let it go.

Nice rifle, had the same at one point in time. Unfortunately, it never shot as well as it looked.

Congrats. Beautiful and classy rifle. That's doing it the right way.

Seems that some shoot really well, others not so good.
When you have a shooter, it’s a keeper, IMO.

My daughter claimed the first one I bought but I was lucky enough to find a replacement. It’s one rifle I’ll keep even if it isn’t a shooter. So far I haven’t got serious at the bench to see what to expect but I can’t imagine it won’t shoot good enough for whitetail in the woods..

That's a pretty gun. I had to settle for a Tanger F/S in .308. Would like to get a 9.3X74 and a 308. Rusty
