How many of you that were originally part of 32 member group buy back in about 2008 still have them? How did they work out for you? I still have mine. Wont be selling it anytime soon. I have used it for positional practice. Lately I have been assassinating rock chucks with it. Great fun. I have a Mark 4 10x M1 on it. Great looking and shooting gun. Puts a smile on my face.

I ordered one in the 2010's.

Was a mess. Won't do business with them again.

Gun was done late. Wasn't function tested. I had to send it down the road due to medical bills after I got it running.

Not going to beg people to do their jobs when I'm paying for it.

Sorry to hear it didn't work out. I think I remember your name on the group buy list. Mine has been flawless

Update on my original post. I have been shooting cheap blaster ammo for years and not really doing high precision shooting with it. Mainly positional practice. Anyway, I finally bought some Eley EMS match(flatpoint). First time with high end ammo. What a shock. Shooting first time today with it. 50y 5 shot groups were: 1/4, 1/4, 3/8, 3/8, 5/8. Done with Mark 4 10x Leupy. I am embarrassed that it took so long to try really good ammo.

I had APA put one together for me right after the group buy. It has an original Nikon Tactical 4-16 scope mounted. It is outstanding 22lr. Always has always been accurate and rock solid. It holds its own with my Finnfires (Range and Hunter in McMillan HTG stock), Anschutz 64 R Biathlon and 40X. If you get one you will not be disappointed.

Very interesting. Sounds like your Sako/Lilja build hangs in there with some impressive competition. I am waiting on a Vudoo barreled action for a Manners stock. I had no idea I would end up with 2 really nice precision rimfires. I plan on making up for lost time.
