I started shooting one of these in .222 in the IBS. On the trigger hang tag mine was identified as a 16 twist. Most accurate factory rifle I ever owned but tied with one Sako A1 in 6ppc. I had 2 other identical Sskos that were not near as accurate. I beat quite a few custom 6ppcs for 2 years with my Stealth before buying my first built 6ppc. This rifle should make someone happy. At approaching 79 and facing surgery next week I hope someone scopes this up before I weaken, lol.I never did anything to mine but install a 2oz Jewell. Yea, being not to bright In sold mine, still crying.

I've got one - as other posters have said - it is one of the most accurate factory rifles I've ever had. Easy to put 5 in a teeny-tiny little hole at 100 yards. Barrel is super smooth and feels like an after market custom when cleaning. One slight error in the ad - it is a push feed style action , not a Pre-'64 Style controlled round feed with claw extractor.
But, if someone is needing a great bench style varmint rifle - this should be on your short list.

"Barrel is super smooth and feels like an after market custom when cleaning."

Winchester used Wilson match barrels on the 'Heavy Varmint' series.

Nice rifle but, it is push feed, not controlled round feed. Just so you know.
