I have only shot it this winter , around 100 rounds in an hours time at the farm I shoot at here in Wisconsin . Outside temp was around 30 degrees it didn't warm up to much in the cold temps. I wouldn't know how it would be in the summer, but I am going to find out this summer in WY. Pdog shoot'n at a friends ranch. I always bring 2 guns with me so they can cool down a bit. I would also look at the Savage Axis under $300.00 Boyds stock $100.00 some clean up on the trigger and you have another sub moa rifle on the cheap.
Yeah headed that direction this summer my self. That's good practice to take a couple of rifles. Last time i was out it was hot as the devil.. I was up in SD. Anyway...I read the barrels heated up fast. Of course you never know who your talking when reading reviews so know some don't. They all heat the question is to what degree. No pun. LOL
The Mossy is one of the rifles I am considering since it is chambered for 5.56. I am considering Savages also. Actually high on the list but I do like the 5.56 chambering and the larger capacity mag of the Mossy. My only concern is how it shoots and functions. If I can get it to shoot sub moa I would be a happy camper. Not sure why others don't chamber them for 5.56 but there must be a reason.
