Very nice, this little rifle is definitely at the top of my list for a first Rifle, looks to be accurate enough to have some fun at the range and take out a few bunnies. Doing some window shopping looks like the whole set up (rifle, scope, rings, bases, bipod) should only run about 8-900 dollars if I can score a bargain. Thanks for your write up SHV!
Easy come, easy go.

Hooley Dooley. Does it improve the cyclability?

a lot :lol:

with the rubber ball, I believe there is no need to buy a lever .22 for fast cycling, no much difference...
