[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1139096, member: 87243"] I bought one a while back, a youth model in 308 for my girlfriend. DID NOT like the lighter bullets (150's) and the groups seemed like the bedding was not secure. So I bedded it with jb weld and who would a thunk, groups shrunk. With 168 AMAX bullets it prints 3/4" 5 shot groups, and good velocity for the 20" barrel at 2730fps. If you plan on changing the stock or at very least bedding it, I wouldn't hesitate. It's a good shooter. And for her uses, the 3-9 bdc nikon isn't too shabby. For a long range rig though, I would certainly upgrade the glass. Overall good gun for the price though I would say.
