    Wow. I like the rifle
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction

    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    I've got the 980s (22lr without the camo), great little rifle.

    I love my 982vs. Has a heavy target barrel on it that shoots amazingly, always love shooting it. The camo is just tape, Camoform to be specific. Great wee product

    Hard to tell what it hit. I suspect bone somewhere.

    But I can confirm it was a 40gn Vmax out of a 223 chrony'd at ~3100fps
