Pretty amazing. Once I figured out the BDC I was drilling the targets, even with rapid follow-up shots. Groups were not super tight, at best they were around 3-5", and rapid fire was within a foot.

I love my rifle.

One thing though, when I mounted the scope, the front sight is DIRECTLY in the scope path, yet when I look through the scope, no sight is to be found. Can someone explain this to me?
I cant explain it,but if you turn your scope down to 1X you should be able to see shadows from your front sight post. Past 3 or 4X its just to close to your glass & will blur out. Your front post can mess with the light that a scope needs to function properly. Some guys piss & wine about this,but it has never bothered me. I set my scopes about 4-1/2 & leave them there.
