I got on ethis summer in a .270 and it was really fussy w/ loads but I found one that it likes and get a 1 inch group if I do my part. I also fixed the trigger pull down to around 2.5 pounds.
I like the fact that I can go through the bush, toss it in the truck and really not worry about scratches and dings like I would if I had a Sako 75 or something like that.
Like what was said above, its a model 700 bolt action without the frills. I would buy one of these before those Stevens any day.
Cheers!!
