I'm feeling it's reputation for accuracy. I'm contemplating between the standard and heavy barrel model. The difference is 1lb. But i figured the heavy barrel can take continuous use. But I know FN standard barrels must be pretty close to the heavy. They just make awesome barrels... period.
What I like about this rifle is, that it's accurate enough for general hunting/sniping. but then switch from a 5 round mag to a 20 round mag and you have a long range battle rifle. Very versatile, yet in the standard model, 8.9lbs is still lighter than most comparable rifles in this caliber which usually weigh 10/11lbs.
