Likely a paper thin barrel and a price tag that screams ...run Forest run! No thanks.

Me personally........I'd like to see some reviews ???

I want stainless synthetic with detachable magazine model.

salukipv1 02-10-2012 09:41 PM

it's a step up in price over the montana.

I always find it a little bit odd that people get so worked up over the weight of their gear when they're packing around a few more double-quarter-pounders-with-cheese than they should be and their "running" shoes are probably found under a half inch of dust in the closet.

A .308 needs a muzzle brake like a dump truck needs racing slicks.

Too light, imo.

Agreed.

If the rifle is accurate, the weight would be great on a mountain hunt. I would be worried about a thin barrel "flicking" factory loads.
