Great rifles. If you reload,be cautious about going overboard.The receiver and barrel are one piece and strong loads tend to create excessive headspace in these models. This problem is hard to correct as one might imagine as a one pieces setup. Keep loads in the factory range or close,and one should not have any issues. Enjoy
