Hey everyone!
So long story short something told me to go to the LGS call it a Gut Feeling. I have been looking for a rifle to start my niece and nephews on for a little bit for now. Kinda torn between getting them something to just get them started at the lower end of the budget rifles ….or Buying something Nice that they will have after I’m gone from here. Right there upfront was a Browning Xbolt Micro Hunter chambered in 243 I asked to see it and was shocked at the price tag $550! Well it did have some honest wear and tear on the stock a few scuff marks if you will. Well that helped me decide to ask hey $500 and I’ll take it home he said sold!!! But alas I wasn’t planning on buying it so I put it on layaway!!!!
So in closing I am Super Happy and know I don’t have to worry about new Hunters scratching up a pristine rifle like my CZ527 in 6.5 Grendel. If anyone has one and has any thoughts about it please share it will most likely get a VX3 HD 2.5-8x36 from Luepold
