Yeah Greg it kinda favors the Sendero.I have a homemade STW based on a remmie action.If I could have bought a factory rifle at the time this one would be it. It has a 26" heavy barrel,claw,all of the win.traits.Now I have to go spend a bundle on some optics.I am thinking somewhere in the line of up to 20 power.If it shoots anywhere as good as my model 70 in 7 Rem.Mag I am going to have to retire "BABY DOLL"
