I've had a few and just didn't care for them. The accuracy I got out of them, I've got out of nearly every rifle I've had. A few exceptions of course. Camp is where you make it.

The mag is cheap but it's workable and upgradeable. I think one of the draws of a .223 bolt is having it built on small, lightweight action.

Love the gun but wish it did not have the threads on the end of the barrel.
