which model is it? the 2000 or one of the earlier ones ?? by the sounds of it with 3" groups its one of the old ones with the crappy barrel. Tehy also had a dodgy safety mechanism.

Le Old Git has a web site dedicated to this rifle, but i'm at work at havent got the link here. Somebody else may have it though.

I'll have a look back here tonight and post the link if it hasen't already been done.
