purchased this gun in 6.5 creedmoor not knowing what to expect,the gun had so many great features, sale price was to good to pass up, pleasure to shoot amazing results!!!! Can only imagine what will happen when I work up a good load!!! yippeeeee!!!!!

I purchased this rifle in 6.5 Creedmore. It is comfortable and fun to shoot. Verry accurate and a great value. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

Bought this rifle in 6.5 Creedmore and mounted a Bushnell Elite 3500 3-12x40 scope. Bore sighted 2 inches high with 3 shots at 25 yards and then shot at 100 yards. The grouping was fantastic but was 10 inches high. After making the appropriate adjustments I was shooting 3 shot 1 inch groups dead centre. The only question in my mind is why the big difference from 25 yards to 100 yards? Usually there is not that much difference. I was told these 6.5's shoot really flat so I need to try at longer ranges to make sure there is not the same kind of variance. Definately good value for the money especially when on sale for $100.00 off.

Bought this rifle a while ago, got a whitetail buck at 180 yard dropped in his tracks, been doing some studying cannot wait to take it on a elk and moose hunt! Oh yeah and velvet mule deer hunt this year!!

I got this rifle as a Christmas gift last year, and also ordered a 3-9x50 Vortex scope to go with it. What an awesome shooting system! The Cerakote finish on the rifle’s metal parts is well-applied, beautiful and extremely durable. The black synthetic stock is sturdy and tough as nails. The spiral fluting on the bolt and the straight fluting on the barrel are supposed to reduce weight, and I’m not sure how well that works (it’s not a heavy rifle), but it sure looks good. The synthetic polymer magazine is surprisingly tough and sturdy (although I ordered a second one just in case). No issues with feeding, and the thing is a tack driver at 300 yards. My only quibbles are that the recoil pad could be a bit better (the 30-06 kicks like a horse in a rifle this light and the factory pad isn’t quite up to the job), and I’m not a fan of the Remington-style safety design (but that’s just personal preference). Kudos to Mossberg for a job well done!

Rifle is well built and cycles smooth, my local gun shop was impressed by the features of this rife. Can't wait to take it deer hunting this fall!

This rifle, dollar for dollar is a fantastic buy. It shoots sub inch groups with five different brands of 117 grain ammo.

The priCe was great, im noT a fan of the Stock , but i like the rifle i Did purchase a boyds laminate stock for it , you get Alot of bang for your buck , i M happy so far
