This "budget rifle" horse has been beat to death but to be honest I think they are all decent rifles for the money.

I haven't seen too many forum posts out there claiming to have many rounds through them, except for the one fellow claiming 17,000 rounds through his Axis. I'd enjoy reading about that kind of round count (or even one-third as many) through the other budget models.

I have the equivalent of those rifles from the 1970s, the Remington 788, and it is still going strong.
Steel is still steel, the finish isn't as pretty, but I can't imagine any of them not lasting as long as higher priced rifles.

How many rounds through yours?
I'm not sure if the newer budget rifles would last as long as the ones from decades ago. Now there's MIM parts in them.
