Its not cheap is inexpensive. I have one and its tough as nail and shoot one hole at 100 yards. The actions are strong and reliable, I recently made a mistake reloading and shot a load in my 300 wbythat was way over pressure it blow the primer out (never found it), left brass shards all over the place, and I had Hornady imprinted into the bolt face. Once I stopped shaking I loaded a different load into the rifle and shot eight rounds back to back, the first five of which went 3/4'' and four of those were in the same hole. Inexpensive not cheap there is a difference.
