Anyone shooting this one?

If so, how good or bad? What plus or minuses?

Is 24" too long?

The one I have is a Hammer.
10 shots @ 100m the dot is 3/4 inch and not a cherry picked group

I built a 6.5X47Lapua on an AR-10 lower using the DPMS upper and bolt system. It is super nice and accurate. My bitch is it tears up the brass a bit. Even with an adjustable gas port it will ding the brass.

I have one of these, and I built one for my dad. Both are real shooters. 10 shots inside .75 inches at 100 yards is not unusual -- with the factory 140 grain A-max.

They really are heavy beasts though. If you are looking for something that is easy to tote around, 20" may be a better option.

800.00 for the upper is not so hot of a deal.
The whole rifle can be had on line for 950.0+shipping.
Add a Geissele trigger and a PRS.
This is 5 shots @100m

Factory spec reloaded ammo is running @2711fps with a ES of 15 and a SD of 5.
100m 0
200m .5mil
