Witnessed three plastikka failures this year: two plastic clip related in the field, and one brought into my gunsmith buddy's shop where the two piece bolt madness failed.
Go for a used ruger 77 type carbine with open sights.....
More info please.
A crushed mag is not a rifle failure. And what “two piece bolt madness” failed?
I’ve seen more than two dozen T3’s used in some horrible ways, with over 100,000 rounds through them.
