Good choice. I just bought one myself. Expect much better accuracy than you quoted. But you should understand that to get great accuracy you will have to float the barrel and bed the action. They build the rifle with two barrel contact points (raised bumps) in the forestock. That is not good for accuracy - your barrel should free float all the way. Easily done - even by a klutz like me. Email me if you have questions on how to do it. You should also expect to handload to get accucarcy as well. My advice - buy one and don't look back. They are beautiful rifles with a nice beavertail cheek piece that feels like a kiss from a young girl when you lay your cheek on the nice warm wood. Mine is shooting sub 0.2 MOA (on good days) and stays in the 3s and 4s on bad ones.
