[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 2071743, member: 307"] I have three in the stable now but have had many over the years in various configurations. ALL have been extremely accurate and dependable. I have shot them in local competitions and informal shooting competitions with friends. I use them for varmint and deer hunting and have installed barrels, muzzle brakes and aftermarket triggers on most of them. The only, and I mean only, failure was my fault. I broke the ejector in a .300WinMag 112BVSS shooting high pressure loads (208gn ELD-M's @ 3100+fps) on a hot, humid summer day. I'm still using and shooting the rifle as is. It's a single shot so no big deal getting the case out. It extracts fine. In fact I dropped it this year from the deer blind! 15-18'! Right out the window of the box blind. I just knew it was ruined. It knocked the scope (Vortex Strike Eagle) off about 10" but otherwise the rifle is good. I'm going to send the scope back to Vortex and have them give it a once over. [/QUOTE]
