Those are 3 shot groups even though most look like 2. Pay no mind to the one hole that is taped up and labeled pulled, I saw the crosshairs drift as the trigger broke, new rifle new trigger im allowed one bad shot right? lol
Rifle was zeroed with the ballistic tips and the shift in the groups is due to different bullet poi. All were loaded with the same recipe.

I'd buy it, shoot it a little and try it out, and if you don't like it, trade it out. It's just a gun, and therefor it's trading stock. I do this fairly often. One of your boys might like it and get handy with it if he uses it much.

Correct, since if you did 3 shots on top of each other it would only be .308 instead of .000. Bullet dia is basically not figured into the grouping more or less.

I have to respectfully disagree.
While yes, the plastic stocks are a turn off, the guns work as they should (at least in my experience). I have a Ruger American "Ranch" rifle in 450 Bushmaster that is a great shooter. Aim, pull trigger, kill what you were aiming at.
I LOVE beautiful wood stocked guns, but don't hate on the plastic ones either. I like not being afraid of using my guns and giving them some "character".

Me personally, I prefer wood stocks over any plastic.

But, after the first big dent/scratch, I can relax and enjoy my new wooden stock rifles without babying them any longer.

Plastic will hold up better... weather wise.

After serving in the Marines, my first old M-14 was originally wood. Was eventually exchanged with a plastic stock. Held up great in wet weather.

Another duty station, I was eventually issued another M-14 with a wood stock, I just love the look of wood.

Basically, if you want a rough and tumble rifle that you can spray camo or play with... go plastic.

KY Gun Co had them for $174 after rebate, and $230 or so with a decent scope.

Picked up one in 6.5 CM, tossex a $39 TC ML scope on it.




First shots at 50 yds.

Low, up.
Less low, up and over.




Adjusted, out to 100 yds.
Called the flier.
