Gun Shopping Need Some Help To Get The Right One
I been gun shopping would appreciate any nudges in the right direction. Here is my current wish list. I may be missing something too.
Legal most places with a small ignition conversion.
Uses pellets and 209s and is rated for 150 grain charge or can be converted.
Good feel to the gun while holding it, working the action, aiming and pulling the trigger
Takes a scope nicely.
A SS barrel is very appealing.
It needs to shoot straight. I have been using power belts and would like to start using shockwaves too. I was at the range with the 24” lightning bolt shooting 100 yards into a 1- 1.5 inch group and I feel like I could improve. I had a marlin 30 30 and I was shooting the same group with it. I have heard of some brands shooting a 4” group at a 100 yards. That would be no fun at the range.
Reasonable cleaning
Reliability
Have heard some stories of the Traditions bolt action cock on close rifles shooting when closing the bolt.
MSRP of about $350 (find a sale $200-$250)

I am attracted to the Evolution Premier SS .50 Caliber. I am concerned that don’t see very many people recommending it.
I would appreciate any help or adjustment to my wish list.
