Does anyone have any experience with this rifle. Does it have a prounounced blast? Is it very accurate? What grain bullet does it digest most accurately (my guess is 168 gr. match hp). How does it handle? Most importantly, do you like it?

With a 18" barrel and tipping the scales at 9lbs I would not call this fast handleing carbine, it uses an extended eye relief scope mounting foreward of the receiver which does work well.

It does perfer the heavier match quality ammo, and is going to be the most accurate in it`s class of .308win carbines.

you will not regret your purchase if it meet your needs, SPRINGFIELD is just quality.
