I got the trophy hunter package with the Nikon Prostaff 3-9 on it in 2013 in .308. It is ok. The rifle is very light and has become my walking around rifle in deer and bear season. The stock is flimsy but servicable. The magazine feels cheap but I have had no issues at all in 1000++ rounds through the rifle. Accuracy is so so which I suspect is due to the stock somewhat. It is very picky about projectiles. Some combinations average 3moa or worse. The rifle has been a 2 to 2.5 moa shooter over all. Best accuracy for me has been achieved with sierra 165 sp gk's and Berger 168 VLDs. They stay around an inch and a half at 100. 400 seems fair for the package. Maybe I have a lemon or maybe I expect to much but my Weatherby Vaguard deluxe shoots circles around this rifle. Even the old Winchester 88 fairs better in the accuracy department. Your mileage may vary.
