This rifle is awesome. From the look of the gun which is badass to the way it functions, the trigger is smooth, and shooting it is a blast. I have only got to shoot approximately 90 rounds through it. The only thing I would change is the buttstock. Now I cannot wait to get the suppressor ordered. Awesome product
Took a little bit to get factory ammo, and held off until I had these in had to compare my handloads to. All rounds shot unsuppressed. 45F, first 45 rounds thru the rifle. 3-shot groups of factory Gorilla 210g Barnes TSX, 2.0”, 1.75”, 1.5”. Average 1.75”. Cycled flawlessly. Factory Gorilla 285g Fracturing Subsonic. 11” drop from what I had zero’d the TSX at. Wasn’t too surprised at this. This ammo did not cycle the bolt properly. 3 fail to feed, 2 stove pipes. Again, I was shooting unsuppressed, so I haven’t given up on this factory load. 5-shot group 2.0”. Switched to handloads: Hornady brass, CCI 200, Accurate 1680 pushing Gorilla 285g subsonic fracturing projectile. Ran 3 different powder loads. All cycled flawlessly. All 3 loads hit paper similar to the TSX: 23.0g, 5-shot group 2”. 23.5g, 5-shot group 2”. 24.0g 10-shot group 1.75” For those balking at group size, these were the first rounds thru the gun. She hasn't settled in yet. She shoots better than my numbers show - I know the shots I pulled.
Beautiful rifle. I can’t give an opinion on how it functions as there is no ammunition available. I will update my review after I have a chance to shoot it a few times.
Awesome fit and finish, unable to comment on accuracy and shootability due to ammo shortage
