I wasn't looking for a new ML, but a friend won this gun at a banquet and wanted to sell it cheap so I picked it up. WOW, AM I IMPRESSED!! The first 3 rounds with 100 grains of tripple seven (2 pellets) and a Sabot-ed Hornady XTP hollow point, with iron sights, right out of the box, at 100 yards (that was the only seat open at the range or I would have started up closer) I put 2 of 3 in a 3" target and the third was just outside. It loads easily, and I have done nothing to it since taking it out of the box. It has a "spacer" in the stock for smaller shooters, but my 2 girls have been able to shoot it very well as is. So, if anyone is looking for an entry level, economical in-line ML, with good iron sights, I would highly recommend this gun.
