Got this little combo gun off a guy and his wife that were tired of walking it around the gunshow on Sunday morning. They wanted 2 bills and were knda pizzed cause they had seen one for sale at 350 and the only offers were for a hunderd. Well....welcome to the gunshow. Reality check dude!.The guns only go for @ 250-3 at Academy and some gunshops. I offered 125. he came down to 180 and settled for 160. Gun wasa like new with the zipper bag, 20 gauge barrel, and a 3X9X32 Tasco scope mounted on the rifle barrel. A quick check this morning showed the ring clamps were loose on the base mount. Good reason for the poor accuracy.

Got the scope nad base set right and set up to shoot at 25 yards. Got it to 1" below P.O.A. at 25 yards, should be near right at 100. Better range report later. Using 55 gr. FMJ handloads I use in my ARs for now.

How many thousands of rifles have been blamed for being inaccurate over the years due to loose rings or bases?

I'm sure here are alot of them. Get some with scopes that are bent, loose recoil lug scrrews, etc. I don't mind. I can get them cheap that way.

Coincidentally, I looked at a Trifecta, yesterday, with barrels chambered in .243, 20ga, and .22lr. I did not buy it, but thought it was a cool package. As a young boy, I would have been thrilled to own one of these.

A very practical combo.
