If your interested.. I know its not as large of caliber but its a great rifle that I bought for my girlfriend a Rossi .223 w/scope and carrying case.
150$
We have had 4 Rossi crack barrel rifles come thru our range in the last year.
All were .243 cal. and none of them would group worth a damn, Had trouble keeping them on a 8x11 sheet of paper.
YMMV, but I would look at something else.
Glad they (rossi's) are working out for ya'll. If your ever in the area of the St James S/O range stop by, I would love to see one that shoots well. Neat looking little rifles.
slick,
this is another reply to your earlier message about the .308. I see you probably want it for your teenage son. Quite frankly, this one would be perfect because it light and easy to handle, smooth operating and the kick is stout but it is not bad when shooting offhand. Plus he won't be burning ammo like we do with our ARs. One accurate sucker. Have only put 18 rounds through it -- at least 10 in a 2-inch group on first try from 100 yards. Hope I'm not too late from your original August post, I see you were still looking on Nov. 19. I wll be a Sherburne this Sunday. Send e-mail directly to benreed@cox.net.
Check the local WalMart. I was at the one in Alexandria about a week ago and they had the M700 ADL in .243 on red tag clearance for $300. You are not going to find a better price on a new M700.
