Shouldn't the rebate be based on when you ordered the rifle, not when you get it?

Haven't been billed for it so no invoice......
Well, I saw they had taken the payment out of my account again today and checked. It has been shipped, so I should get notification it's at the store within a few days. Hope it's a shooter.
Bear, what caliber did you order?
.223.
HOLY CRAP!
Got my 223 M12 FV to CMP today to brake it in and see what it will do.
These are the first three shot groups I fired with it. I was still doing brake in and had done single shots and clean five time. The barrel was incredibly dirty coming from the factory and it took about a half hour of brushing and patching before I ever fired the first shot.
The first round of each group was with a clean barrel, which is pretty extraordinary because normally there is a POI shift after the first round on a clean barrel.
First group measured 0.157 MOA.
Second group was 0.35 MOA. Yes, I moved the windage adjustment in the wrong direction.
I forgot to take a pic of the third group, but it measured 0.236 MOA.
Fourth group is 0.275 MOA.
Fifth group is 0.236
These are not hand-loads. They are with Hornady 55 grain V-Max, which also happens to be what I run in my AR15. Very convenient!
That is an average group size of 0.2508 MOA. This is a legitimate quarter minute rifle. Not to shabby for a rifle that only cost $220. May be the best money I ever spent.

Very nice!!
Wow that is impressive !!! Called about mine the other day and they said around the 25th of November
Mine too...
Just remember to clean the hell out of the barrel before you ever fire it and brake the barrel in properly. It can really make a difference.
