I gave up! The first one I got had a bad breech plug. It felt like i was cutting threads on the way out with the breech plug. Both the plug barrel were messed up. New breech plug did not cure it. The second one the breech plug was fine but when the action was opened, the barrel wobbled all over.
I really liked the way the thumbhole stock fit when I put it to the shoulder, and how the light the trigger was. I an a lefty(only when I shoot) so the ambi stock was great. Now I am wondering about all the stuff I have heard about CVA and Quality is true. I have a Kodiak Magnum and only have about 20 rounds thru it. I notice when pushing a patch thru the bore at about 6-12 inches from the breech, it loosens up then gets tighter as I get closer to the breech. Kinda makes me worried that the barel is slightly bulged in that spot. (I never shot more than a 2 pelet load in it.) Does any one else have this problem?
Kinda wish I still worked in QC at the machine shop cause I could take an air gauge and measure it.
