The gun gets good reviews for durability and accuracy, if it fits you go for it, and burris makes good optics,way better then the trashco/simmons crap most places throw on their "package" guns. -06 is a versatile round too.

That's a decent price for an A-Bolt with accessories and an optic. I would still haggle a bit though. A good price can always be better!

It's wood, but I don't mind that -I like the traditional look.
