Finally got a #1 in 280 Rem checked off my 'bucket list". Picked it up about a year ago and just got glass on it and a load for it.

Should be minute of deer to over 500 yds.

Isn't it a violation of forum rules to start a thread about a nice gun and not post pics of the gun?

Don't know if it is an A, B, Q or Z sub model - how do you tell?

Pad was replaced with a decelerator pad. There is a black bear etched in one side of the receiver and a big horn ram on the other side.

Even got my "kids" in this one.

It's a B - 26" medium weight barrel, no sights, semi-beavertail forearm.

Looks like it shoots pretty good. ;-)

The etching of the bear is actually a bear, but in the pix it kinda looks like a cougar w/o a tail.

Found an AB in 7x57 once. Only one I ever saw. Prolly should have bought it.
