    I find a thumbhole stock feels a lot slower on the reload - but I'll admit I've never put the same rifle in two stocks and run a timer on it.

    Mags are shit,Rifle feels cheap,probably the biggest cause of hassel on range nights after Blaser.

    They sold a bunch for cheap over here,the follower was flipping in the mag and jambing the bolt forward,or the follower and a round would jamb up together. We looked at pulling the mags apart to see but they seem to be almost sealed.

    One guy had problems with the rifle not going off too.

    I am trying to remember if we did get a mag apart once to see why the follower was flipping,can't remember honestly.Its hard to see a young fella with a nice new gun which is really a pos but you can't tell him. We were also limited to how much we could rip into the guns by the lack of tools on the range.Mag was a total soft plastic effort anyhow.

    What a bunch of funny cunts hahahahaha

    Yeah re the S20 - they do seem cheap n shity, Im not really sure why all these companies do these el cheapo's ( even though their RRP ain't cheap ) just stick to making decent stuff & Sako already make a budget rifle it's called a Tikka.

    True but he will only have it for 5 1/2 minutes then sell it on here and be off on another tangent
