I liked shooting the half dozen that showed up at the range enough to get one of my own.
Pros Crisp adjustable trigger, pillar bedded, near perfect balance, light, handy, accurate ( as in sub moa with good ammo ) good build quality the magazines thing. Cons Kind of hard to get at regular street prices, aftermarket is small compared to Remington 700. Haters ( It is not an AR, $3k precision rifle. what they have yadda yadda yadda ) |

I like mine a lot, the only compliant I have is the bolt is a little sloppy, not real bad tho

Aftermarket chassis stock for the MVP.

Bolt fit can be a bit sloppy/wiggly for rapid-action, but it's otherwise quite a nice rifle. A few more high-quality after-market stocks would get it the rest of the way, IMHO.

IMHO the bolt is no more or less sloppy than a Mauser, Ruger or Winchester Model 70.
Besides the MDT LSS chassis Boyds has several models of stock to choose from.

I didn't mean to imply it was all that terrible - as you mentioned, my 98k is the same way. Some people just have unrealistic expectations and expect everything to roll like a $5000 custom rifle. (A highly-customized Mauser SP66 is the only bolt gun I've ever seen with a zero-slop action.)
I sold my 5.56x45 MVP because I decided that, if I was going to use a bolt rifle, I wanted it to be in something harder-hitting like 7.62x51. I am looking forward to buying a MVP in 7.62x51 in the future. |

I talked to the gun counter on base and I can get a 20" 7.62 Predator for $564 out the door. I will also get a 10% off dropping the price a bit. Seems a fair price for all that rifle offers.

I paid $525 from Buds back in February when they first came out (plus $20 dealer fee). They are $508 cash price on Buds now. So to have it hand and no dealer fees, your price sounds fair.

What is the deal with the cash price thing. How the hell do you pay cash to an online retailer?

You order it and send them a money order.
