Your Questions Answered
Is the scope already zeroed?
The scope is mounted and bore-sighted at the factory. This gets you on paper at 25-50 yards, but you must complete a live-fire zeroing session with your chosen ammunition for precise accuracy.
What’s your recommendation for initial use?
Our staff suggests a 50-round break-in period before relying on the rifle for critical use. This allows the action to smooth out and confirms reliable feeding and ejection with your ammunition.
Does this ship to an FFL?
Yes. This rifle must ship to a licensed Federal Firearms License (FFL) holder of your choice. At checkout, you will provide your FFL’s information, and we will coordinate the transfer directly with them.
