I handled one once. But did not shoot the rifle. I do not remember if it was the I-Bolt or the Icon?? The bolt was very smooth and the rifle had a good feel to it. It was a walnut stocked rifle, and the stock was a good bit above average. The rifle had a butter knife bolt. I am not sure if I liked the bolt or not. It felt pretty good, and I liked the width of the bolt. But the bolt felt pretty light. I would have had to shoot it a good bit to decide whether I liked the bolt or not. I have a butter knife bolt on a SpringField that I really like. But that bolt is a good bit heavier. My buddy bought the rifle, and it shot pretty good. But the trigger was pretty bad. He had a smith fix the trigger. But after that he is happy with it. Tom.
