When one already owns a few .22LR and a couple of 223Rem, what would be the point to own something in between especially on such a horrid platform. Even if it were to be chambered in a beautiful rifle, I would not entertain the caliber. Primarily, because it isn't reloadable. Not for me.

Have a buddy who got one in Edmonton somewhere. Shoots pretty good I guess, his groups are tightening up.

I saw one of these at P&D earlier this week, hadn't seen the ammo either but it is an interesting looking cartridge. If I had some extra cash and was not into reloading I'd buy one in a heart beat. 3000 fps rimfire sounds like fun to me. FS

For those that bought one of the B-Mags and are not happy with the stock, Boyds has a few options for them now.

I bought one and its a ton of fun to shoot. I found the 25 grains shot excellent, but the 20 grains gave me a horrible group, like 6 inches at 75 yards.
Gonna have to look at the boyds stock for sure, factory one sucks.

The stock sucks but not nearly as bad as the action.

Yeah they could have spent a bit more time tinkering on the metal side of the gun too. I can look past the cock-on-close and weird shaped bolt........The worst part is the ridiculously high throw on the bolt. Somehow though, its still fun to shoot.
