I believe it, Rangefinder.... mine has been so accurate with open sights, I just had to try it with a scope. I finally got a Burris handgun scope, and am anxious to try it out. I was going to glass bed the drop in mount where the rear sight went, but using the dovetails will be infinitely better.
I can't wait to see what this rifle will do when it isn't hampered by my almost 60yr old eyesight. It should be a hog/deer gun of the first order. And, it shoots cast bullets very nicely, as a bonus.

It shoots the S&B 180gr softpoints into an inch at 50yds with open sights... I'm thinking it's going to do that at 100yds with glass on it.
