Let us know how she shoots
Nothing wrong with a Vari X II at all. I have my share of Leupolds and they have all worked, even a Vari X I on a hunting rifle.shooter5907, you're right, I am used to a rifle with a trigger safety where the firing pin spring is always pulling the bolt lugs rearward into the recess in the receiver.
There are several things on this rifle that are new to me. It is my first Winchester anything and I like it.
I like it a lot.
I just loctited the bases for the mounts and Sunday I'm mounting the scope. It's not a Vari X III though, it's a Vari X II. It's what I have. I think it'll do!
Excited here. Handloaded ammo is on the ready...
Regarding free-floating the bbl; I'll look into that after I put the rifle on a rest and give it a fair chance to see what it's capable of
