I have one. Solid shooter, there is a learning curve with the mags.
Factory mags won’t lock in fully loaded with the bolt closed, only open. My Magpul mags however, when inserted on an open bolt,
Can easily be inserted too far, and the bolt won’t close. Two handed affair to get one back out.
Solution is load the factory mag with the bolt open and the magpul with it closed, or just be careful when locking in the magpul.
Really not a big issue.
Damn accurate for a cheap rifle. Mine is a 6.5 CM. The brake is pretty effective too. I’ve shot it a lot with and without the brake, the 6.5 is a easy shooter with no brake, but with it is ridiculously light recoil.
My rail mount screws were loose out of the box. I pulled them, degreased and locktited/torqued them. There is a plastic jig for putting the trigger group back in, helps line up the mag catch. Pretty useful, it should be in the box with the gun.
I did a year in the ROK. As a grunt, I was going to the 2d ID,till the Honor guard detachment at Yongsan pulled me for duty there.
Probably before you were born
This was going to be a mid range elk gun, and might still be, but I had my 300 WM braked this fall, and it is nice to shoot now. It was pretty hard on the shoulder before.
Thank you for serving.
