I know there have been several posts on this rifle, but I just wanted to add my experience. I purchased it a few weeks ago and promptly got it sighted in and some handloads made up for it. Sighted it in Christmas Eve and shot a little 7pt at 75yds Christmas morning. He hit the dirt instantly with a few leg twitches.
I loaded up Sierra 120gr pro hunters over 24.7gr of H335 and 120 Nosler BT over same charge. Both shot outstanding. I took the buck with the Sierras.
This is the easiest shooting rifle I have ever owned. My only complaints are more fit and finish. The bolt is a little sloppy and you need to put a little more force into working the action than I like. However I think the latter is more and issue of needing to break in the magazine spring.
The scope is a Weaver Kaspa 3-9x illuminated reticle.
