Hawkeye - I own two - one is a BVSS, the other a VLP-DBM. Both are fine rifles, and shoot one ragged hole all day long. I handload for mine. Both are heavy, they aren't something I'd consider carrying around all day. Both benefitted from a good barrell break-in. The Accu-trigger takes some getting used to, and there are some people who just don't seem to like it. My overall experience has been that both of the rifles were very well built - there isn't any slop in the bolt travel, the laminated stock has a nice satin finish, and everything locks up pretty tight. I took both of them to my local club, and asked a few of the guru's there about bedding them. Two of the three both commented, "with groups like that, why bother?".
The 22-250 BVSS I have, out-shot my best handloads for the .223, using factory ammo. I was damn surprised. If you're paper punching, which I am too, you'll be pleased. Enjoy it.
