I own one and I love it. It is lightweight, handles well and is great for elk and most anything in North America (although some might question brown bear). It is also very accurate - I have a target w/ 3 out of 3 rounds within about 2.5" at 200 yds.
I reload and my favorite load for elk is 250 gr Swift A-Frame wh/ travels at over 2500 fps muzzle velocity. I put a new trigger on mine (Timney, I think) but I understand that you can adjust the factory trigger. I mounted a Leupold VX-III 2.5 - 8.0x scope on it. Now, after all that, I have to admit I haven't shot anything with it yet. I have it in the field a couple of times, but no joy. Hope to get a monster bull elk w/ it this fall! BTW, what sold me on it was reading Col Jeff Cooper's opinions (he shot his only lion w/ a .350 RM) and Chuck Hawks (www.chuckhawks.com). Happy hunting and good luck w/ it. mike |
