Not that particular version, but I can speak about the 16FLSS left hand in 223.  I bought it for use on our place in Colorado, and it's had the holy stuffings kicked out of it.  I only use it about a month a year, but the hands use it continuously the rest of the year for sod poodles, coyotes and dangerous soda cans.  Based upon the ammo I've bought for them over the years, I can document that it's closing in on 10,000 rounds through it.  It even gets cleaned once a year when I visit it.  In the meantime it rattles around in pickups, on 4-wheelers and horseback collecting mud, dust, hay and about anything else that gets in its way.

It started out shooting an inch or less with about anything you stuffed through it.  After all it's been through it still comes pretty close to that mark.

How can you treat a rifle any worse, yet get such good service out of it?
