Its a very nice little rifle though I think a 22 inch barrel would balance it better. The grip is a little thick for my daughter, but she doesn't seem to mind or notice it as much as I do. grin
She picked it over a New Haven Fwt, a .257 Bob Mnt rifle and my Montana.

The 140 AB's were new for us this year. Been shooting 145 Grandslams in 7-08's and 7x57's for years (decades). I used 46 grns of H-4350 in virgin RP brass and it shoots sub-moa in her CDL, my boy's LVSF and my Montana. Velocity's a bit low, but I couldn't be happier than to have only one load for the 3 rifles! They worked to perfection.
