Why It’s Great

• “Big-gun” feel for rimfire: Bolt-throw adjustability and rifle-style ergonomics resemble Ruger’s centerfire Precision Rifle platform—great for serious training (turn0search3, turn0search10)
• Target-grade barreling: Cold hammer-forged barrel with high-precision rifling and suppressor readiness ensures accuracy and versatility (turn0search0, turn0search3)
• Modular and user-friendly: Magpul rail, adjustable chassis, and AR-style controls make customization easy and accessible
• Proven accuracy:
• In testing, sub‑1″ 5-shot groups at 100 yd with accurate ammo like Aguila Silver Eagle (~0.94″ avg) and Eley Contact (~0.47″)

Reddit users also report ~0.5–0.75″ at 25–50 yd with CCI Maxi-Mag and SK Standard Plus

Considerations

• Ammo sensitivity: Accuracy varies significantly; it performs best with premium subsonic or match-grade 40–42 gr loads like Aguila or SK
• Mixed reviews on accuracy: Some report mediocre groups (~2 MOA), advising that it’s not as precision-oriented as CZ or Tikka rifles and may require tuning or upgrades
• Magazine quirks: Occasional failures to extract using BX-15 mags noted; fixes include testing different mags or mag-cleaning maintenance
