My Axis = MCARBO Pro Trigger kit will make the Trigger world class. One piece pic rail and quality scope. Removed recoil pad and pack that stock with sand and reduce the recoil. I also removed material from the stock to insure a free floated barrel. It shoots excellent.
I used a Dremel and finished it with a hand file to free floated completely. A little off the sides and front. An index card folded in half will pass between barrel and stock.
@ That’s AWESOME!!! Iknow the feeling of dremeling on a fresh out of the box firearm. Immediately voiding the factory’s warranty!! Lol :p Fantastic Feedback!! Thanks for sharing..
I learned a good lesson a long time ago and many boxes of shells later-- spend more $ on your scope than you do the gun. I have a leupold vx3 that i haven't had to move not one click in 15 years.
@@richarddailey4786 I heard that saying and do agree! Unfortunately as far as scope prices go it doesn’t take that much to be over the cost of the gun. Lol 😂
@@devonseay8376 Quick update! Love this Rifle I think it’s great. My scope did come off opening day. I fault myself for not tightening them more securely “only hand” checked them. The Weaver scope originally was crystal clear but now has a slight unfocused look!! I was able to take it the follow Friday back to the range and get right back on paper and get zeroed in… No problem whatsoever! I’d just be sure to check your mounts!!

I would have taken the money that rifle cost. Put on a good scope. I just bought a Leupold scope. A VX6 HD 4x24x52mm TMOA reticle scope. Buy once cry once. Put it on my new Xbolt Speed Long Range 280AI.
@@ozark_trapper you’re right on the importance of a good scope. But I’ve had some issues with jamming with my rifle and just wanted to try something new!!
Bought the same rifle last season. It does kick like a mule, m carbo sells a trigger kit for 20$ brings the trigger down to about 3.5# and makes the rifle much easier to shoot.

@@ozarkmountainoutdooradventures yeah you said a Remington 742. I got my daddy's 742. He pasted 6 years ago and I haven't shot it i build a in loving memory boxs for it.
@@jimmyholliman7103 Sorry to hear of his passing. Mine passed in 2019 and the 742 was his. I wanted to use it and I did kill a couple does with it.

Seems to be a Very once entry level bolt action rifle! Yeah I knew the scope wasn’t what I was planned on keeping on it. Just needed a quick and easy solution to get through rifle season.
@@ozarkmountainoutdooradventures vortex scopes are pretty amazing for the price. Especially for a budget rifle. Love Nikon but they no longer make rifle scopes
@@BP83299 eye relief is not what I would like, but for a cheap Weaver 3x9 it will get the job done. Unfortunately, I only hand tighten the bolds and the entire scope fell off opening day of rifle season. Huge disappointment and took another trip to the range to re-sighted in and did it in half the time. But still should be double checked before taken out in the field.

@@tylerd8516 I may look into the trigger you mentioned. What’s it called again? You have link? May I can incorporate it into a video!!
U can tell how it's grouping on that. I was looking at buying one in 280AI. But that changed my mind for sure
The cost of the rifle is fair for the quality..
Enjoyed the video just subscribed
Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for the Support and Welcome to the channel!
@ozarkmountainoutdooradventures have you used a 270win?
@ I have not! I have considered a 22-250 or a 270 for a coyote slayer.
I don't know what gran bullets you are shooting. But mine I shoot 150ga and it doesn't kick bad at all
@@jimmyholliman7103 they’re 150g.
It’s not a horrible recoil. I’m just use to a much heavier rifle that there’s hardly zero felt recoil ..

Have the 2506 version the gun is great the scope was junk. Put an old Nikon 4x40 on jt and its a solid 1 in gun deadly deer killing machine.
Seems to be a Very once entry level bolt action rifle! Yeah I knew the scope wasn’t what I was planned on keeping on it. Just needed a quick and easy solution to get through rifle season.
Maybe I can do a follow up with an “upgraded” but still a budget scope.
Any suggestions?

@ Nikon is good! I’ve bought the vortex crossfire 2 it’s a good quality scope and company.
