Here are some pics of my new toy! I haven't been able to get in much (Been Sick) shootin other than the 10&15 yrd. makeshift setup I have in my garage but from that I can already tell this rifle is gonna be a keeper! Nice crisp trigger that can't be more than 2 lbs. Steve on the Yellow says his breaks at 1.5 but I have not taken a scale to mine yet. Overall the gun is fairly light (about 6.5 lbs until I put my Leapers boat anchor in it) and so far I have zeroed it at 12 yards. and it just doesn't know how to shoot any thing other than into one little hole at this range. I can't wait to see what it will do when I get over this crud and can take it out on some real ranges. But for now, in front of this Christmas tree is the closest I've been to the woods with this rifle. But even with this limited range I can tell this rifle is gonna be a favorite! 8) It just feels like it is gonna be a great offhand go to gun! What it lacks in fill capacity it has gained in fit and balance.It will shoot 36 rounds (3 mags) before it starts to lose power. It really feels good to shoulder and theres just something about looking though the scope and firing off a full 12 rounds into one little hole without losing sight picture & hearing not much more than the action snapping that tells me this is gonna be a fun huntin/pestin winner!
I'll let you all know more at a later time. Best, Ron.
