Have yet to read anything bad about these. Don’t see any new CF rifles in my future, but one of these would do. Not much SS in cheap rifles these days.
I’d really like an M03, but that’s just crazy talk.
What fresh Hell is this?

I've only handled a blued gun and it definitely had the all to common Tupperware feel but for the price I will probably try one if I find the right chambering...

Does it have an integral rail on top for directly mounting rings/mounts?
No...?
Not interested..

Not interested.. The M12 Impact comes with a Rechnagel 20MOA picatinny rail. Otherwise, I believe it uses a pair of Remington front bases.

The M18 & the Sauer 100 have a Remington 700 LA base pattern.

Are these available yet, and if so where?
I have handled a blued one with that stock. I don't care for the removable butt. Not a deal killer. I like the longer LOP. The "frosted" stainless on this is a bit of a concern. Ruger's frosted stainless mars if you look at it wrong. Savage's didn't last more than a few ride in a 4 wheeler gun bracket.

I bought my M18 blued when they were on sale at EuroOptics for around $500. It's one of the most accurate rifles I own, so no reason to complain over cosmetics, Is it pretty, No- but it shoots. I also bought the M12 on sale in .308, it's going to my designated hunting out of a blind in the woods rifle. The short 20" barrel sure will be an advantage.... actually hope to finally get it in the woods this weekend.

Unfortunately the 223 has a four round magazine and a 10 twist barrel

I have a Mauser 18 in 6.5 PRC. It is the model with the olive green cerakote finish. It is a tackdriver. Solid half moa with handlods.

Happy with my blued M18. Accurate rifle. I believe the promotion a few years ago was buy a Mauser rifle, get 50% off Minox optics.
