It was blowing much too hard and my target box was waving around in the gusts, but I still got 5 shots before I bagged it. First shot to get on paper, then the next four at 36 yds. Everything went perfectly, cycling, ejection and lock back--the rifle just "feels right." The brass looks happy too. With a reddot it tips the scales at 6.5 pounds, very handy for a 20" medium contour barrel. Obviously this barrel is vastly superior to the first one and credit must be given to Faxon for working to make it right.
