That is a good shooting, inexpensive way to get into the game.
The best part is that you can shoot out the barrel, sell the rifle as a parts gun to someone who wants an action and stock, then go buy anther new one cheaper than a rebarrel.
Have you tried 40 gr Nosler BT or V-Max in it yet, if not give them a try - there is a noticeable difference in recoil and the splat factor is just as good as with the heavier bullets. Also the 40's actually have a little flatter trajectory all the way out to 500 - further than I shoot most of time.
