Stainless Predator, it appears. I bought a blued Predator earlier this year, it shoots pretty well with 'less costly' ammo, and goes shoulder to shoulder with my CZ 455 Scout and the same ammo. I've been pretty happy with it so far, but it's magazine-sensitive, some mags need upward pressure to feed properly (those same magazines work fine in my ancient 10/22). That's not an uncommon problem, according to what I'm reading on rimfirecentral.com..

Keep an eye on that, make sure the magazines fit snugly and don't drop slightly while still being locked into place. It's a pain, I've got two magazines that seem to be snug enough to work properly, the other four I have to keep separated (I just keep them with the 10/22).

Overall, I like the little rifle. It's fun to shoot and reasonably priced.
