This gun, for me, was the epitome of an all-weather rifle. I wanted a stainless/synthetic combination, along with the large caliber of a 7mm for hunting big game. I grew up shooting this same rifle, only that model was slightly heavier with a solid wood stock.

Surprisingly enough, it shoots close to the same, despite the lighter overall weight. Recoil is jaunting, but to be expected with the 170gr nosler-partition rounds I feed through it. Maintenance is as to be expected, with the stainless barrel wiping clean almost effortlessly. The stock doesn't need oiling and won't swell due to the imbalances of any climate. Overall, it performs very well for the price.

It comes ready for a scope and sling; both of which mated perfectly for me after each respective accessory purchase. I would recommend this gun's versatility to anyone in need of a great hunting rifle!
