It was very accurate. Shot Federal XM80 ball at 1" at 100 yards consistently. It was very light, handled well, easy to shoot. Traded it to a buddy who really wanted it and has since passed on. Family sold it to someone before I could buy it back. It is one of the few guns I regret getting rid of.

I had one up until a few years ago. I liked it. It was accurate. Divorce is an expensive proposition.I'm hoping to replace it in the near future.

in Scout configuration. He told me personally " in some ways it is better than ALL the BOLT Scout rifles."

I bought one anyway. I love single shots and old hunting rifles, but my eyes are starting to betray me and I don't know how much longer I can hunt with them (or shoot them at all).

Of course I have a pile if scoped rifles and didnt really need the Scout but we can't let logic enter the equation.
I used gun logic. I sold one "wanted one for a long time" rifle so I could only replace it with something else from that list.
