Woodhits,
I’m interested in doing a evaluation on how tight the action tolerances are - I go to SHOT every other year, so ... I skipped this year (went last year).
One thing right off the bat - Plastic magazine lips on a 1,600 rifle ... when it’s is a known complaint by Sako guys against the Sako A7, was a easily for see-able thing.
I like the tang safety.. provided it’s bullet proof..
I’m not sure on the trigger angle to the stock... it’s out of line with the tactical shooting path, so it’s an odd ball looking thing for most of the guys..
The recoil system probably won’t impress many unless they throw some 3rd party testing to show how it reduces recoil.
Frankly the stock looks plastic, but the PR says the bottom is metal so it’s hard to tell what’s what.
I’d say you need someone to tear it apart and do some review on it, and I don’t mean a product guy .. I mean a gun smith or competitive shooter who knows what’s up.
It could be a good rifle - first thing I would do is put metal magazine catches, and lips on it... otherwise it’s a bit disposable
Cool you got to hunt with it...
Just for clarification the A7 has metal lips on the magazine.
