We have an XL7 in 30'06. By its serial number, its an early run, and has a real nice wood stock. It has a really nice weight to it and feel, but havent had alot of luck with accuracy. I blame the cheapo simmons scope I had laying around, that I stuck on it. I have a feeling that once I put a good scope on it, it'll shoot nice. For an inexpensive gun, you cant beat them. You could only do worse.
