My first centerfire was a 700 ADL in 243 Caliber in 1984 which I still have an will never part with. Since then I have had probably 8-10 and still have 6. Never an issue with any of them...ever! I have a couple of adl synthetics now that get most of the hunting duty as they are so ugly some scratches and dings could only help the looks
. Every 1 of these guns would group very well with some loads and a couple with any load. Accuracy, function or dependability have never been an issue. Nothing fancy...just pure ol bland accurate tack drivers. The 700 stock fits me extremely well off the shelf also. Love em!
