Sometimes I stand back and look at my guns and realize I’m missing something. I realized recently that I didn’t have a serious long range rifle. So I started at the beginning.

It won’t make you a better shooter than you are, but you’ll still shoot better because the gun is about as accurate as a gun can get. It is a well built rifle that will handle the abuse of the hunt, and one that will hold its value for generations to come.
