    i like Sako Quads, theyre not cheap but not over the top expensive either . . i like the barrels, every barrel i have owned ( 4 ) have been very accurate.
    Go mad & put something like a Lilja barrel on if you want extreme accuracy.
    The actions are pleasure to use, very smooth & never had a jam or hesitation feeding in either of the 2 i own
    good triggers . . . its all good.

    stock standard theyre good rifles . . . add a stock that is better for your style of shooting, a larger bolt knob, alloy trigger guard, weaver rail and you have a great rifle . . . to me

    Sounds like you would be better off buying a norinco, replace the stock, replace the barrel, replace the trigger guard.....

    Nope. Nope. Nope.
    Does frustrate me how accurate my little jw15 can be but no matter how much you polish that turd it won't be in the same class. The em332 is nice however but personally I'm a huge fan of the quad.

    Synthetic stock on some of the quads is light but real hollow and just feels cheap but the range and other wood stocks are real nice.
    The only point of changing trigger guard etc is if you don't want any plastic on it.
    Action and trigger are super slick and the few I've played with/ owned have been very accurate.

    good question Ryan . . why would you put thousands of dollars into a .22 or worst 2 of them when a Norinco is cheaper ?

    this spins my wheels . . crazy i know . . but i would rather have my madness than your attitude.
    The good news is your not alone, plenty of others use terms like ' just a .22 ' when talking about them.
