i was thinking of gettin one of these in a .270 caliber does anyone else have one of the rifles

Can't say I have been too impressed with the Icon, ugly rifles, and the wood to metal fit is less than desirable

Not the best looking rifle I have ever shot ,but it shoots very well straight out of the box . 243 win

Never had one but did handle one. It seemed nice enough, but was heavy. I don't think I would ever buy one though.

We finally got a few in our shop. I have to say that I like this rifle a lot. It is a heavier rifle but the fit and finish is well done.

The stock has very nice wood on it, it is a Ultra Walnut stock from S&K gunstocks. The bolt operates very smoothly although being a bit bulky, the trigger is excelent for a factory rifle, andI like the idea of the integrated Weaver style bases machined into the top of the receiver.

My only grype about this rifle is the plastic magazine.
