Default Optima Elite

I am thinking about getting the Optima Elite when this years season is over. I want to get the .50 first, with the stainless fluted barrel and the black fleck thumbhole, then start buying the centerfire barrels. Has anyone had any good or bad experiences with these guns?

I almost bought one. They are high quality and excellent handling rifles. T-hole stock is an excellent choice IMO.

I have that exact same setup and I love it. Great feeling gun and it shoots great. I also have a 308 barrel for mine and it shoots great as well. The bargera barrels really nice.

Thanks for the responses. I think i'll pick one up after this season. I was torn between getting the elite or just the pro, as i already have plenty of hi powers. But now i figure i might as well get it and have the option down the road to buy barrels.
