I'm starting to picture Carson like Walter White, taping up money behind the wall insulation, except instead of a nursery and such, his house is filled with guns, gun safes, ammo cans and empty Red Bulls.

Probably because 260 is bigger in europe and its Beretta so they probably won't even import any left hand versions.

I almost posted this last week, I own a McRee BR-10 and pretty close to several of the McRee shooters and company itself. Very well built platforms and worth the penny in my opinion.

There really isn't much excuse for any major rifle manufacturer not to mass produce rifles capable of such groups with the right ammo. My Ruger American will put 10 shots in a sub 1" hole at 100 with 155gr Palmas over 44.5gr of IMR 4064. That was with the factory wet noodle plastic stock too. With hammer forging there is less need for heavy profile target barrels and extensive bedding. Modern CNC production equipment can turn out bolts and receivers that are as good as what would have required custom work 20 years ago.

Nice rig
obviously the ruger precision must be selling well
this one seems to have less plastic than the ruger?

Yay. Another tacticooled up rifle. No flashlights, lasers, holographic sight, and bayonet on it?

Everything is there for a purpose. What were you expecting out of a factory precision rifle?

Exactly - all that needs are optics and bipod - and nothing else.
