That was an SPS, Mountain Rifle, and XCR II Oh, bullcrap....Sure makes for a good story, though. Believe what you want, but its the truth. The XCR and MR feed fine after going back, the SPS still doesn’t feed right.

There are enough 20yr or older used ones out there to last a couple of lifetimes. I look for the 1980s vintage M78s now when looking for an action. Cheaper than 700s, smooth actions. No issues.
