I have one in .270 and I love it. It shoots about 1.5" groups at 100 yards, with a good rest and better shooter that could probably be brought down. It's not the best looking rifle in camp, but it's the least expensive. I redid the stock, sanded and filed all the mould marks and painted it green texture over kaki. The only issue I had was the bolt handle had been bumped up a bit and I took a shot at a deer and it only clicked, I re-cocked the fireing pin and still shot the deer, but instead it was running. I think it's the best value in a rifle out there, and you don't mind taking it out in weather. I was looking at replacement triggers and for $100 I could get one, I'm just deciding if it's worth it.

Good luck
