    I have one in .223

    You mentioned the finish rubbing off on the Barrel of the previous model. I noticed that with a little wear on my new Hunter Max 1 the Stock paint rubs off pretty easy too.

    Having said that, I don't really care much for the Factory accustocks looks but one thing is for sure, with the American Eagle 50Gr Ballistic Tip ammo it shoots half MOA at 100yd consistently. The same with the Fiocchi 55Gr SP.

    This rifle is fairly weighty, and as mentioned above it has a noticeable "Front Heavy" feel especially with my Suppressor attached!

    Over all though, this Rifle is an excellent buy, well priced, accurate and reliable. Just be sure to check the feeding issues related to Short Action calibres as they have a tendency to feed low, "stove piping" the rounds but it is easily fixed by opening the magazine lips gently.



    Hs Precision make an excellent stock for these rifles if looking to upgrade





    and Boyds also make a fine thumbhole Varmint


    for a more dedicated "Sit and Snipe" Stock. Just be sure to measure your screw spacing.
