Thats good news yours shot well with the factory barrel. Out of interest - did the right hand side bolt lug gouge a mark down the right hand side of the action? This one has and at first I though it was the extractor claw, then the "fin" below it, but have now come to the conclusion it's the bottom of the bolt lug. The smoothness seems lacking a wee bit - could be because it's new, but it feels "off" Maybe I'm just use to brownings. The rifle itself including the action seems well made and solid - there's no plastic on it at all which is great and the factory bedding is one of the better I've seen. Fark, maybe I'm just a fussy prick?....

You have every right to be you have invested good money for a good rifle and you should be getting good quality. I was shocked to see the pic of the barrel at the start of this thread and thought shit even the budget rifles had a better finish.
