    Get a suppressor for the biggest cal and use it on the smaller as well. That's what I would do. Shit, I should take my own advice

    You can get a decent new rifle for not much more than what some second hand ones go for. Have a look at Mossburg Patriots or a Howa 1500

    Have seen and shot several mossturds. Not a single one was capable of shooting better than 2-3 moa. Their barrels are bad, the bedding design is retarded.

    And no, my rifles (tikkas, remingtons, rugers) all shoot between cloverleafs and easily sub-moa.

    Thats what I was expecting from this one but this one shoots inch or under easy with handloads if youd call them that. Had some fmj pulled the pills and seated soft points in it and wala

    I wouldn’t buy a rifle from GC sight unseen, you’d want to have a look at it first or get someone you trust too. That being said I bought my Blaser R93 second hand off them years ago, it took several visits and the “Carlsen Highway” treatment to get the price down to what I thought was fair
    Shut up, get out & start pushing!
