I have one. I absolutely love it. I will say it depends on what you will be doing with it. Inside 250 yards nothing can get away from it. Here in Indiana we are a shot gun state but recently DNR had allowed some rifle calibers. It's very restrictive, must be .357 cal or bigger and case length can not exceed 1.80 in. So the 450 bushmaster meets those requirements. I have shot 2 deer and a coyote with it, all have dropped in their tracks. 250 grain 45 cal bullet pushing 2200 fps.
