Has anyone had any experience with this gun? I am being offered one for around $1000. I really like the 300 win mag but I noticed this is the first year they built them and they only made 250 of them. Thanks for the guidance!!

I've got one in .223 and absolutely love it. It's accurate as all get out and cleans easily. That's exactly what I paid for mine, and do not regret it.

I've had mine for about 6 weeks now. Love it, 66 rounds to brake in the barrel. Now working on load development w/208 AMax, still looking for the perfect load. Did put a muzzle break on.

Thank you all for the reply! Jrs, where did you get the muzzle break? How much did it reduce the recoil? Thanks!

A local smith made it and installed, looks good and cut recoil at least in half.

Thanks very much! That would make a day at the range not turn into a night of pain!
