I have two, they are both nicely done, have excellent DSTs, outstanding wood-to-metal fit and better wood than what I expected. The 40-65 averages 1.5 to 2 MOA with  my black powder paper patched loads at 200 yards but my heavy barreled 32-40 is definitely a tack-driver. With my Mos 210 gr spitzer it'll keep them under one MOA at 200 yards unless the conditions get to me and I screw up the group.
On the down side, they have had a "bun in the oven" for me for over a year now. I'm not real happy about that.

There are indeed two Americas. Simply put, it is not the haves and have nots. The two Americans are in reality divided into those who do and those who don't.
