My brother-in-law used one this year for the Michigan firearms deer season, He said that it was very easy to sight in and that it was one of the most accurate rifles that he has ever owned. 1 inch groups at 100 yards with scope same at 50 yards using the iron sights. He shot a 6 point and a doe, both with only one shot each-devastating results with the new Hornady ammo. He's extremely happy with it, I haven't shot it but it sure is a prety rifle! Bricat
