It is a factory class I'm shooting in. I came close to buying a 40X a few months ago but I waited too long and I missed out. It had a Shillen barrel, a Jewell trigger, a tuner and a BR stock. It was a heck of a deal from a guy who's given me some real breaks but it just didn't work out this time. I ended up buying the Savage 12 LRPV in .223. I certainly can't complain about that rifle. It's amazing IMO.
