None of these things are deal breakers, for me the biggest issue was the weak bottom plastic and I replaced that immediately.
These rifles are built for a purpose, and they fit very well for that purpose.

Yeah the one I had my hands on wasn’t too bad for l.o.p for me personally, would probably still need a spacer/thicker recoil pad.
I’m hoping low rings will fix the comb issue but I’m prepared to fit a comb pad
And the bottom plastic was a new issue to me but as Ryan earlier on in this thread mentioned the bottom plastic swapped out for a alloy one makes a world of difference so I’m factoring that into my budget.
All in all it seems like if you get a good one they are a bloody good… I’m just after something that shoots Moa on factory ammo that will be carried a lot more then shot and will be as light as possible doing it.
