[QUOTE="Erick, post: 2610332, member: 11535"] I've been looking hard at the Mossberg but wasn't impressed with the feel of the action. I was really hoping for a version from another manufacturer with all the features of the scout rifle. This rifle doesn't do it for me for two main reasons. Price and magazine. I don't see what makes this a +$700 rifle and why would they not use the most manufactured 223 magazine on the planet? The idea of the Scout Rifle, doesn't do it for me. In 308, the cartridge is too versatile to limit to x4 power optics. In 223, it's a step back from an autoloading AR platform. The only advantage I see is reduction of action noise and that does little good on a suppressed .223. [/QUOTE]
