Just got home. they had one in Brantford so I got it.

Won't get to fire it today, most likely.

Anybody else have one?

Haven't found any burrs or other shoddy workmanship. Seems ok.

Hopefully a range report to follow :) ...havn't quite been able to bring myself around to the extra 100 $ for a takedown :p
They are well built though and I love the tension adjusting ring !! Good feature!

As soon as I can get to the range, I'll let you know.

It looks solid and feels solid. No play when it's put together.

It's compact. But even with a scope, sticking past the end of the stock, it fits in the bag and zips up comfortably.
 
Ok, it's damn fine. I love it.

Had some trouble initially with the bolt release. But that got sorted out.

It was only 20 yds, but it's sweet.

3 adjustments and it's not bad. Hope to get to the longer range this weekend.

but overall, I'm very pleased so far.

got the Butler creek mag and loader. Already couldn't live without it.
 
Mike, is yours easy to put together and take apart? I love mine, but it's definatly a bit of a ##### to put together and i know it shouldn't be from watching numerous videos about them. I guess the machining on mine is pretty exact or it just needs to be broken in a little better.

Yeah, it snaps together and apart very easily and is solid after.

If you continue to have problems, call the 800 number I suspect they have.
 
Got out yesterday for a bit before dark.

I'm terrible with this camera thing.

They're not terrible (I know they are to most of the sharpshooters here) targets when I concentrate and do everything exactly the same way everytime.

In the right hands, this is a real zombie killer.

It's a whack of fun.

The bolt lever was initially stiff, but it's working in now and it will be fine.

this was at 50 yards.

Ok, lesson learned.

The bolt lock, that I called bolt lever above, was not stiff.

the problem was the stiff behind the butt plate.

:redface:

I believe the rifle was perfect in every way right out of the box.
 
anyone found a folding stock for the takedown version??????


I want the takedown so i can transport it......... i loath LEGALLY trransporting LEGAL guns just to have cops give me #### and a hard time



better they not see a gun case or anything that looks firearms related whist still being in perfect compliance with the law.....


see "encased" re firearms act

tiny cases dont draw much attention
 
this is what I want....

thing is buddy had to cut a regular 10 22 stock in half and MAKE it...... I want something pre-made by a factory for this gun....... an aftermarket stock if you will

or something similar

Well, everybody needs what they want and everyone wants something a little different.

Your buddy is pretty handy and if he used a functional stock, he has a high degree of confidence.

You'll probably get one from him before you'll be able to buy one, but maybe there is a stock out there. That one looks totally functional. Could you put it together and let us see it?

I like mine just like it is. It is extremely portable and as good or better than advertised.

I couldn't be more pleased.

All this gun talk is causing my trigger finger to twitch.

I think I'll find a couple of hours and hit the range.
