I see they are now selling these on Gunbrokers and I am considering purchasing one in 300WM.
Does anyone here own one? Handled one? Looking for any feedback postive or negative.
Thank you


My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

Rifle came in yesterday, 300 WM. Fit and finish is very good and I like everything about it except for the high gloss stock but that is easy to get rid of.
It is very easy to break apart. Remove the magazine and open the action. Underneath the rear of the barrel is a lever you pull down. Once the lever is pulled down the barrel separates from the action. The barrel section is 25 inches long and the stock and action are about 22 inches.
Iron sights are ok. They look kind of cheap but have a nice sight picture to them. I doubt if I will get a chance to shoot the rifle soon but will post results when I do.

How's the trigger? Hope to get a report after you test. I'm looking at one of these, too.

Trigger is not to bad. I would estimate it breaks at about 5-5 1/2 pounds with hardly any creep.
So far the only negative I can find is that the take down lever will not fold out of the way once the rifle is broken down.
