Pros…
This rifle is stupidly accurate, possibly the most accurate factory rifle I own.
The stock is the best on the market for a reasonably priced factory gun bar none.
Trigger is excellent


Cons…
The action has basically no primary extraction, wasn’t noticeable at first with new brass but a couple of loads in it’s a problem.
Ejection angle is too high, becomes a problem with low scopes with windage turrets.

Interested in others experiences

With the 6.5 CM, I haven’t noticed the extractor issues with anything except my snap caps. It won’t eject those at all reliably. Everything else ejects really well.

I agree that it is an excellent value.
 
Agreed. Exceptionally accurate and handles well. I fixed most of my extraction issues by moving the front ring forward one pic slot. But several times I've had factory hornady cases get stuck in the chamber after firing, pull on the bolt hard enough and the bolt comes back but the brass stays chambered. It hasn't happened like that with hand loads although they have gotten pretty sticky. Velocities were mild all around. Cleaning the chamber might have helped a little. Maybe it needs to be polished?
