I seem to get more $ if I happen to sell one on EBAY, but the questions, time period and hassle doesn't pay out, IMO. Last edited by onlysmith&wesson; 03/04/21 09:49 PM.

Bergara Trigger and not sure on pounds but it is adjustable. According to reviews most are set right at 3 pounds. The barrel is a number 5 contour I think. Scope is going to have to wait a minute or 2. LOL Over spent my budget. I'll slip it in later. Bobby Barnett

Personally I wouldn’t buy one of these. You can spend that much $ on a better scope In my opinion.

Mark 4’s have served in the various divisions of military for years and have an excellent track record. I can’t think of a better buy for glass quality, tracking quality, resolution, or ability to repeat all of that for $700. Is it because it’s not in MIL’s? Or have a fancy lit retical that changes colors, or has a bullet drop compensated retical?
