Yep. Have you figured what ammo you are going to feed it?

I spent a $100 on drawing chances for one of these at a NRA Banquet and didn't get it. I sure wanted it! As a consolation, I spent $10 on a Kimber M84 and won that one.

I bet you are really going to enjoy it and the scope. Good Luck with it!

I just bought one of those myself. It's a sweet pointing/shooting little rifle. Right out of the box, the peep sight was dead on at 50 yards with 300gr box Remmy Ammo. (Couldn't wait for handloads to shoot it). I'll be working some up real soon. It's like shooting a 6-shot blackpower rifle, without the mess.
