Not bad at all. I forgot about that rifle. They only made it for a year or two? Is that the stock that came with it?

I think they are still for sale, but not this model. This one had the Manners stock from the factory.

Gorgeous rifle. Why they did not market that gun better is beyond me.

I saw one at a shop a few years ago. It was nice, but not 4K nice which was what they were asking. It was the model with the chassis.

Yeah, they are nice but appear to be overpriced. But not many folks have one. I would prefer the Manners stock over that chassis.

I think I paid $2300 for this rifle.

So it has a Timney trigger? Why can't you adjust it down? I love mine.

Yes with hand loads. I'd get a real nice group, but always a flier. Then I'd get another nice one, then it would not repeat the next week. Very frustrating. Gonna try some different powders and mess with bullet weights and seating depth. What really hurts is the horrible shitty 3.5ld Timney trigger. I called those tards today and asked if they would lighten the pull weight on the POS trigger they made. Was told, nope any lighter would make the gun unsafe! |

That must be a specialty made Timney because all the ones I've seen and owned at least adjust down to 2 lbs. I just got a 517 that I took down to 2.25 lbs. Its perfect!

If that action takes remington 700 triggers I was going to suggest a Trigger Tech. I have their AR trigger in my Christensen VTAC......it.....is......INCREDIBLE.

While it is the same physical size it does not work. I tried a Rifle Basix trigger it did not work.

I surf a few of the more prominent precision rifle boards on the web, and have done so for the last several years. OP is the first person I have heard of who has purchased an M2012, let alone conducted a review of the rifle too. By the way, photobucket is shit, they won't allow 3rd party hosting. What are your photos of? |
