But you pull down and shoot and it's almost a 1 hole gun!! 1st pic is trying to get it sighted in. 5 shot. 2 outside the black then 3 in the black. Second pic was after the gun getting beat around in the calling rack all night on gun rack. 3 shots there.

I spent 15 minutes with the Dremel to remove quite a bit of material. Most of my time was spent on the front of the stock but I did remove a little bit of material from the sides along the entire length of the barrel just in case the stock flexed that much. Mine shoots lights out and I consistently hit foxes which are pretty small so if I have variances like you show in your pictures I would miss frequently.

The 2 fliers were getting it in paper then it drilled 3 shots. The other picture is shooting at the the point of the orange 1st shot was cold bore with a bad rest. Others were all in one hold. That gun killed a coyote at over 300 in the noggin with a rest off the pillar of a ranger. It has also taken out lots of fox in the 350 plus yard range. It shoots as good as some of my $1500-$2500 custom builds. I just hate the feel of the cheesy stock!
I am just glad it shoots so well. The only reason I am going to get the Magpul stock is because I like the way it looks.

Originally posted by Fordnandez View PostI apologize, I misinterpreted your post. I agree with you on the accuracy of the gun as I am very impressed with mine, especially for $350. Is it baloney that they market this gun as a free floater when the stock is coming in contact in several places from the factory? Yeah but then again it is a 350-400 gun so you take the bad with the good. I personally do not have an issue with the stock. It is flimsy? Yes. Does it hit the barrel since I did some work on it even when I put some pressure on it? No.

At first I was going to have a gunsmith fit the stock to the gun but they wanted almost as much as the rifle cost. With this be a "budget" gun for me that I want to keep well under $1,000 all-in I decided to try it myself and it worked great. I am sure a gunsmith would have done better but not worth it for me on this gun.
