I don't have one personally, however, our shop has sold two of them in 308 Win and the accuracy has been above expectation according to the owners. Now what "above expectation" means is rather open ended, but, I've seen his 5 shot groups @ 200yds that maintain .5 MOA for three consecutive groups.

The aforementioned groups were using handloads and 155gr Bergers.

The other rifle's owner uses S African surplus ammo that we sell and is getting MOA.

peepsight: 130+ days without rain! And, this has been one of the warmest winters on record; today it was 82 degrees (my patio).
