Finally after some miscalculation on days for bg check, and dealing with a installed trigger lock that the store didn't have a key for (one of the fishing guys is a locksmith, but didn't have tools with him, we ended up drilling it out) I finally have the new spoon in hand. Short light and handy, feels like a grown up 22 like my CZ455. Bolt throw isn't much longer. I have an inexpensive Simmons 2-7x32 scope on it.
My tax stamp collecting buddy has a .308 rated can so this may just end up as a hop into NFA land, though I'll do a SBR first since the efile form1 is a quick wait and I already own all the parts I need - just the $200 tax stamp....
If you are looking for an action to build a small caliber on or want a small handy 223/300bo/6.5g/762x39 carbine I strongly recommend grabbing one. Hit the Cabela's "used gun" section on their website, find one, call the store and have it shipped.
