My father in law just got one in .243 and mounted a Leupold vx-1 3-9x40 on it and is getting groups under 1 inch at 100 yds with handloads. The trigger was pretty bad, breaking at around 8 lbs on a digital scale, but he worked on it and got it down to just over 3 lbs, feels much better now. They say you cant adjust the trigger on them, but hes pretty good with rifles and triggers, and got his adjusted much lower than it was. It is exactly what he was lookig for, cheap, light, and accurate, something he can leave in the truck all the time for around the farm, watch out coyotes!
