I think the negative reviews come from guys that think the triangular barrel is a supreme accuracy enhancer only to find it shoots like other 700s. Reality is it will shoot pretty good especially with good handloads. "The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not."

The only complaint I have heard from him is that the brake is loud (like they all are), and it caused some issues shooting it from a shooting house.
