I had one a few years ago,I reloaded for it,best it would do was about inch group, but not a bad rifle.Think I sold mine for $300.It wasn't a tack driver like my 700 in 222.

Well they aren't super accurate due to the single mounting bolt on the action, I have heard of guys welding on another mounting stud up front.
I received my 30 years ago, it shots surprisingly good groups and it is a fun rifle to plink with.

I have a very old 4x Bushnell banner on mine.
