BSEV: Usually we shoot with few others on the range. No ogling. The rifle does very well with CCI SV cartridges. The rifle is a "trip" has been reliable after many hundreds of rounds. The only glitch was when many rounds of the CCI cartridges has been fired. Extraction become inconsistent. This was a basic cleaning issue-nothing to do with the basic rifle. I'd buy another in an instant. Based on my experience complaints of accuracy do not hold water. Enjoy your rifle. Incidentally I'm only seventy-five.
