I kniw a huntjng guide that used a diamond on his rifle for years and it never let uim down.

Thats what i bought 6 weeks ago in 7-08, swapped the scope on my Stevens 200, a leupold VX2 3-9 X 40, DPT can on the end, felt great when i played with a few different rifles in the store, went in to buy a T3, left with the Howa.....

great for the bush, light as fuck, 20" barrel, hinge floor plate (no mag dramas) nice 'grippy' rubber stock, but does move at the fore end (eh VC) but still free floats, shit hot 2 stage safety.....

NOT slagging the T3 off, just preferred the feel and especially the price, as im a cheapskate and not a rifle snob.....the deer wont know its been hit from a cheaper rifle!!!!!!! as so many others have said!!!!!!
