I have a NULA in 308 that I have now had about 15 years. Melvin is still making them and if I was younger I would buy a couple more before he retired. If I had known what a great rifle he made I could have bought one 40 years ago and never bought another gun. It is my go to hunting rifle for everything under 700 yards. It is a spectacularly accurate rifle and a fether to carry. Scoped with a Swaro Z5 3.5x18x44 BRX, with a full mag and sloing it weights 6 lbs 3 ounces.. It also shoots everything from 130 to 180 grains and multiple loads to very close to the same POI. I have one target that is 12 shots, 2 bullet weights, Barnes 130 and Hornady 150 and 4 loads with two different powders, 4895 and Varget at 2850 to 3150 fps and the whole group is just over an inch and a quarter. Never have I had another gun that would do even close to that.
