Sorry about this but I am just trying to stimulate the economy.

I think when these came out they were in the 400-500 dollar range. They also have the other two inlines Pedersoli made, the 94 and the ovation.

Did you buy one? Bore will be .500" Finish on the stocks seems to chip pretty easily.







Never cared for the mount system.

Also didn't care for the way all the barrel bands will simply spin on the barrel, even the one that retains the forearm.

Yes i did, Having it shipped to Cabelas about 90 miles south which will require a road trip Wanted to get down there again anyway. I thought for that price what the heck. Was going to use my Cabelas points but have to save that for a new bow.

I agree, for that price you could hardly go wrong. I improved the trigger on mine dramatically - but you can probably figure it out for yourself looking at the third pic I posted.

ps: those pics are of an early model of the rifle - could be they have changed some of the internal design.

Not bad as I recall. Don't remember being too impressed or unimpressed. Didn't try too many loads (NO SABOT LOADS) though. I think the rifle would do quite well with the open sights and a sabot round. If you could figure out how to get the scope base on their nice and solid, it would surely do better than my results.

The mount base was included with the rifle I bought - but I don't know that it will be with the Cabela's models. My guess is yes since there really is no other source.

Semi... reviewing my answer above it seems almost totally ambiguous. I hope that helped.

Heck UC, I've been married for 46 years. I thrive on ambiguity.
