Well, finally got it out to the range for some SERIOUS shooting. The Boat-tails sucked; no further info required there. At 100 yards, accuracy is ok, not spectacular, but meat on the plate with every shot. (I have read some dismal reports on these) So my son talked me into trying to whack the gong at 315 yards at the range where he lives. First, I performed a wee bit of magic to the front sight, (classified; if i tell you, you will have to disappear...lol) he spotted for me, I walked it up, (elevation knob set at 380ish to hit spot on at 315 yards) Nothing as satisfying than hearing that hard flat "WHACK" come back after each shot. Now THAT was impressive; definitely meat on the table. Might move up in the ranks as my new moose gun. And this gun is basically stock; a few improvements to existing parts, nothing replaced. Hard to justify spending money on after market parts with that accuracy.
Regards, and happy hunting,
Drifter....
