I just bought the icon 243 (field grade walnut stock) for $525 shipped from Budsgunshop... I took it to the range on thursday and it is amazing!

Took it to the range an sighted it in at 100 yds, then fired off these 3-shot and 5-shot groups:

That is an average of .875MOA @ 200 yds! The accuracy of this gun is everything I hoped it would be.
