Superlight?
« on: October 31, 2011, 09:17:48 AM »
Those with experience, tell me about these models. I am interested in a .243 but from what I've read through searches, they seems to have a lot of accuracy issues. Are these one to avoid? I just like the idea of the smallest, lightest gun possible. What is the actual weight on these guns? I tried the FAQ link on Superlights but it is not valid.

Some have got them to shoot, but the temperature is even more of an issue than the std. contour.  Usually a 1 good cold shot followed by 2 decent then wacko.

I have several Superlights, with the right load, 3 shots are possible, but mostly 2 shots touching or real close, and the third will be out of the group unless you let the barrel cool, the easy fix is to shoot two shot groups for a hunting rifle, I wouldn't choose a Superlight for prairie dogs tho unless you had more than one rifle to shoot!  ;D I fixed Perklo's Superlight link in the FAQs.
