Off topic by a long shot.

Have any of you guy's ever shot a marlin Bolt action High power rifle (30-06)? http://www.marlinfirearms.com/Firear...ction/XL7C.asp

I bought this thing last year and finally decided to shoot it tonight. I was actually thinking of having it re-barreled in a 45 smokeless Muzzleloader. Not any more, this thing shot lights out. It shot every bit as good as my Remington 700's for about half the price.

Take a look right here, there has been quite a bit of chatter on the XL7 on many forums:

A buddy of mine bought one in a .270 for his son. I sighted it in for them and I was impressed to say the least. It shot lights out as well. Not a bad gun at all.
