Title: T/C Icon
Post by: Head-shot on February 24, 2008, 05:51:57 PM

I've been looking at a couple of guns  and want to know some thoughts about the Thompson Center Icon in .243 win. I like its lines but how does it feel and perform. Anyone have first hand knowledge on this shooter?

Ive heard all good things. I guess their method for constructing the barrel is "superior" to other brands. It is supposed to be the most accurate way to make a barrel.

I have read where some of the early production models were a bit rough(read the same about the new S&W rifle as well), kinda to be expected with a new model but the price is a bit steep IMO.Is a nice looking rifle though.
