[QUOTE="NikatKimber, post: 1507293, member: 423"] Personally I don't see this as too big of a deal. After all, the goal is compact and lightweight, both of which the 16" does better than 18" (albeit at a cost of some velocity) Why the heck would you do that? That would IMO defeat the purpose of the rifle! It's supposed to be an "all purpose" rifle, so you need a commonly available ammo. .308 is, 7mm-08 is not. Agreed - although it's sounding like they do use an available mag, if not cheap "standard" mag. Yes, but for some reason, most common manufacturers (other than Savage) don't seem to be able to comprehend the bolt handle issue, much less winter trigger guard. A forward grip? Meh, not really. In fact, not at all. Now flat on the bottom of the rifle, parallel to the bore, with provision to mount a section of pic rail [/QUOTE]
