I got a call from the gun shop - my .450 Bushmaster upper came in ,- so I went and picked it up.
I was pleasantly surprised - when Bushmaster says " complete" that' s what they mean. Many of these uppers do not come ready to mount - but need forestocks, bolt carriers and charging handles. This came with a nice aluminum round forestock - so the barrel is floated. All bolt parts were included. It even came with a 5 round magazine. ( necessary to hunt with). I simply pulled the mount pins and swapped uppers. A 30 second job.
It came flat topped with Weaver mounts - so mounting a scope was easy - a 2 minute job. Boresighted - and out to the range.
With my hand loads I used hunting last year - off a bipod - on the bench I shot three 3 shot groups at 100 yards - 1 inch groups.
I' m impressed. This sucker has real potential.
