The 17FB rocks on pd's though, everyone needs a 17 anyways
FH...it does hurt that your 20 VT has a fair piece of glass on it too
Oh yea and a fine stick of wood wrapped around it.
Iam a sucker for a nice stick-a-wood!
Heres some more AAA grade Walnut

It still is a peach.
I liked it so much I bought another just like it in .223
Both will shoot 1/2" groups at 100 yds.
Good the hear it, that rifle had some nice fiddle back on the under side of the forearm, pretty rifle for sure. Glad your still happy with it!
