Nice Rifle, It should do well for you...
New addition in 308 I've had my eye out for a 308 to add to my collection and yesterday I was at Gander Mtn and they are having a Memorial Day (weekend) sale. They have new and used guns marked down, actually saw a few good buys. I had spotted this Thompson Center Icon several weeks ago but only glanced at it because it was used and they wanted $799 for it. Yesterday I noticed it had a sale tag and was marked down to $594. Not knowing that much about the gun I looked it over and it was really hard to tell it had ever been fired, went home and started some research. The sale ended today so I had to do some quick searching. Reading several reviews about how accurate the rifle was and seeing on Thompson's website that it was certified sub MOA @ 100yds, I decided to go back this morning. After another lookover and striking the deal, I ended up getting it for $594 with a box of American Eagle ammo (20 rnds) and an additional 5% off.
Got it home and mounted a Bushnell scope, now to the range to see what she'll do.

Nice catch! Be sure to let us know how well it shoots.
People don't like to be meddled with. We tell them what to do, what to think, don't run, don't walk. We're in their homes and in their heads and we haven't the right. We're meddlesome.--River Tam
Nice catch. Be sure to post that Sub-MOA group.

nice rifle, hope it's a shooter
Not sub, but 1.25 MOA @ 100yds. Not too bad I guess off bags with bulk ammo. I bought some 168gr Sierra Matchkings to handload. Once I get them done and off a proper rest I'm hoping for sub. Gun will shoot better than I can, that's for sure.Originally Posted by wolfhunter
Looking good. Can't wait to see the results once you dial it in
SWEET! The semi-autos are nice, but I am still a serious sucker for the bolt gun. They were, and always will be my favorite. I'm envious!
