Good choice on the 981. It does not have a floated barrel and doesn't need one either. The reason for a floated barrel is to allow for wood stock warpage. Since there is no wood involved there is no warpage and no need for a floated barrel. Plus the gun has a single mount bolt and relies on pressure for and aft for stability. If it had two action bolts a float would be possible.
The gun will shoot just fine right out of the box. Some will tell you to do a trigger job and that is not needed either.
The 981T is a very good rifle for the price. If it was half again as much it would still be a good deal.
Spend your money on ammo and a decent scope. Then post some groups.
