This particular model with the hb is diamond in the rough. Another one is the 12 fv from bass pro and cabelas. Two major points on each. The fv has a 26" barrel or 24 maybe...which means heavier....vs the 22" axis. And the mag catch on the stock axis is flimsy.

Other than that....decent factory barrel and an excellent factory trigger...They are hard to beat and leave you $$$ leftover vs what I've seen tikkas go for.

Mine ran...

$265 for the rifle
$174 for the boyds with a metal trigger guard
$149 for cdi bottom metal

And the desert tactical model is is another great option they just rolled out.
