First off, anyone own one?
From all the reviews I have been able to find online, it sounds like a good target gun for the money.
Supposed to be very accurate out of the box, and I like the looks of it.
So here is the question...for those that have them...I have only seen them chambered in .223 (as opposed to 5.56)...Now, I fully understand that the caliber stamped on the barrel is what should be loaded into the gun...I understand the safety implications of now folllowing the recommendation...but...for a rifle like this, exactly what would be the difference between the two calibers? If you have seen one up close....the chamber is a big, beefy, heavy steel chamber....fronting a very heavy bull barrel. The additional blast of the 5.56 cant possibly be an issue in this rifle....or am I just an idiot for suggesting this?
In a perfect world...I can buy a 1500...and shoot the Q3131A that I already can get by the case for cheap. I know that quality factory .223.......or handloads will get me better groups...but this is purely a recreation rifle.....just want a fun shooter that can get MOA at 100 Yards consistently.
Please share your thought and experiences .....
and here is the rifle for those that arent familiar with it...
