Nope, but I have been looking at them online and read a few good reviews.

Yep, have been reading all the gun writer reviews, just wondering about real user reviews.   Read one that said he thought the 17 hornet would be a better choice. And I have read where the Winchester ammo, is suspect of being not uniform. :dunno:  might have to wait and see if another ammo maker starts offering it.  I do like the rotary mag on the B-mag. and the price is cheap enough.
Shells are available in Moses Lake, just haven't seen the rifle available yet.

i purchased one a few weeks ago, just havent picked it up yet.  i was in alaska so i bought it over the phone.  its waiting for me ( with a couple boxes of bullets ) in colville.  ill be picking it up tomorrow, and once i get the scope on and dial it in ill let you guys know what i think.  figure itll make a pretty good yote / bob / grouse gun.

I have one. Sighted it in and shot it 10 times. It's gonna be a good coyote killer. I also have 650 rounds in my possession. Thanks to wadu1, Spokane Gun Trader guys and Double Eagle Pawn in Deer park.  :tup:


I paid $325 + $ 35 shipping off of Gunbroker.
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............
