RE: Winchester Apex
FYI, the Apex is actually andmade by the same spanish company "BPI" as the CVA Kodiak. A design approach to compete with T/C's Omega.
Given the less popular.45 caliber, I would say the overall value of the Apex is slightlyless as well.
Given that Cabela's is pushing these out the door for $189.99 retail - If the deal is exceptional,you can register the warrantyand somewhere less than $190, then I would consider it.
Need to ask yourself though, is this the ML and caliber (.45)that you really want? If so, then buy it at a great deal. There are loads for the .45, just not nearly as many as .50cal. The .45 will certainly be adequate for deer and other game in the medium category.
