For what they cost, yes they are very decent, most of the ones I have saw shot very well, makes a great truck gun or a gun to leave out of the safe so you can get ahold of it quick in case a yote or something comes around that needs a shooting.

Well worth the money. It sure should make a good varmit round as the NEF rifles tend to shooter the lighter bullet per caliber weights. The 223 NEF is an exceptional shooter and will match about any rifle for out of the box accuracy.

i've got a nef in .243 with simmons 44mag scope, i leave this gun out of the safe just for coyotes and other vagrants, the gun is reasonably accurate and a lot of fun to shoot. for what you want i don't think you could beat it.

I have decided to try a NEF .204 bull barrel, I want a gun that I can haul around and not worry about getting a scratch or bump on it. Everyone I've talked to that owns one really likes them.
