He liked them and says Aaron is a genius. He would get a gun, mount the scopes and sight in all the guns. He said he'd shoot 2-3000 rounds per week. His favorite caliber was the 6CXS (CSX) not sure the order of it. He wants to get the G7 scope. He now works for the gold mine here, so he doesn't work for them anymore.

Yep, have a 7mm mag LR 1000. very accurate, well manufactured. The Rangefinder is also something to get if you are going to step up and spend the money, they are very well designed! Can program multiple rifle configs for MOA/yardage hold overs, also function to 5 mph increment for associated load wind drifts too.

remember what you are getting. All the work up for accuracy, the shoot in, research for load, scope with specific turret data. These have mostly a modified reciever area to accept longer ammo as they seat close to land. Most factory rifles wont allow magazine to breech with this longer COAL.

Many will argue that you can build your own cheaper, which is mostly true, but if you dont have the time to work all the above at a range and on your reloading bench, the money is well invested....

I know a guy that bought one that didn't have the time to figure everything out. He's really happy with it. Do they shoot any better than a full custom that you piece together or a HS Precision , McMillan , or any other custom rifle builder. No
Anyone that thinks a Glock is better than a 1911 paints his toenails.

Yep, out of the box, was very comfortable shooting 1/2 mile + (800+yds). For OP, if you are not shooting for competition (which i assume), rather hunting application, this works well... and the 1/2 minute accuracy sell point is fair assesment of rifle. You will be the limiting factor at distance, not the 1/2MOA...

500 rounds a day?  (assuming a six day week)

Really?
