Great rifle, equipped it with a UTG bipod and Counter Sniper 10x40 by 50 scope, total package weighs about 12 lbs, too heavy to shoot unless using a bench rest, the rifle is very accurate out-of-the-box, took 5 rounds at 25 yards to get the scope aligned, then at 150 yards, 10 rounds made 1 small hole in the target using PMC X-TAC 5.56 Nato with 62 Grs Green Tip-LAP.
Only problem, it does not feed consistently, many mis-feeds, sometimes the first round sometimes the last round sometimes the third or fourth, never once did it feed the whole magazine without problems, got to see what the problem is with my snap rounds at home mand maybe fix it. Four stars, because this rifle makes me look real good on the range, cannot wait to take it to a 500 yard range.

After a little over a year of owning this rifle in .308, and really loving how it shoots, I decided to pick it up in .223 as well.

As with my 'older' .308 version of this rifle, for the price and performance of the 10PC in .223I could not be happier. Using for punching paper and steel targets from 100 to 500 yards if has performed quite well, even shooting 69 and 75gr handloads with excellent accuracy. I figured I would be limited to 62gr rounds, but the 69 and 75 actually shoot with a higher degree of accuracy, even with the 1:9 twist that this rifle come with. I have a Millett TRS-1 4-16X50 mil/mil tube on a DNZ Gamereaper 1-piece base mounted on the rifle and it is a very accurate and 'fun' rifle for target a recreational bench shooting.

I do have one small issue, but it is with the OE magazine. Might be a crappy mag spring, but the last round does not want to feed correctly. Bolt does not pick up the round about 50% of the time, and even when it does, it goes at an odd angle. Not a huge deal as I'm usually shooting 3rd groups, but when I run a full mag its irritating to have the last round flub. As I said, I have the same rifle in .308 and have no feed issues whatsoever with that gun.

Bud's is great as always.
