How is it? Does it shoot/handle well?

I bought it in 2011. It is a very good shooter. It fits me well which makes the recoil almost not noticeable and not near as sharp as a 338WM that I had. It is a good push.

I can hold 5 shots inside 2" @ 200 yds. off a bench. It is one of the few larger calibers that I will shoot off a bench.

The rifle will shoot better than I can.

My son can hold it under 1" @ 100 yds for 5 shots. I can do that once in a while.

The best group out of it for anyone has been 5/8" C to C for 5 shots off a bench.

My wife has shot it standing and she is only 5'1".
