One thing I notice about "new" rifle models is that they all seem to have these "problems". Especially as they move from "custom" status to mass manufacturing methods. None of them seem to work right and shoot perfectly....at least some of them.

Seems to take awhile before the monkeys are worked out and makers get their act together.Which is why I generally sit back and watch before reaching for my checkbook.

Just more evidence that CNC and computer driven machinery and holding parts to tiny tolerances,synthetic stocks,and modern barrels are not the only answer to a quality rifle.

They still have to be assembled just "so". It's the difference between a great rifle, and a POS that's frustrating to own.




The 280 Remington is overbore.

The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.
