read about it in the new G&A that came today, available in 30/06, and 300 Winchester magnum slightly over $1K. of course it got glowing reviews, don't want to P.O. Benellis ad manager.

it, to me, is one butt ugly semi-auto. strange recoil pad, its a v cut in the butt with layered shock absorbing qualities. the whole thing is wierd looking. but thats me

as Gomer used to say "fer shame, fer shame, fer shame."
