I picked up some better loads today, a rifle case, a ten round mag (DPMS) and a bi pod. With my straight across trade for this rifle for my Winchester 94, my total investment for this rifle, scope, case, bi pod, two clips and 1100 rounds of ammo is 14 year investment of 200 dollars (what I gave for the Winchester) and 209 dollars today for the extra ammo, 10 round clip and accessories.
I would say I came out OK with my 400 dollar investment.
I am anxious to take this out and sight in the scope.
I hope that guy likes his beat up old Winchester as much as I love my Gun Of The Year!
