Picked this up this week, need to get it to the range and see how my 7.62 loads work in it. Mossberg MVP 7.62 NATO, 18.5" barrel, predator version I think.

Neat rifle... I have the varmint version

I've got the varmint version of the MVP in 7.62 with the longer barrel and laminated wood stock. Great, easily adjustable trigger and I like that I can use my M1A mags in it. I mounted a Leupold 4x - 14x scope on it. Haven't played around a lot with it yet, but it seems to shoot well with 5 shot 100 yard groups running around 1.25" with the loads I tried. I haven't gotten around to working up loads specifically for it yet.

Neat toy, I'm sure you'll have fun with it..... :-)

Nice piece. Which model is it? We'll be looking forward to hearing how it shoots.

Predator version I think, with the black composite stock. Shot it today, two good groups but had scope mount problems and had to stop.

Thanks. I really like that stock. It must be new to the line because I don't see it on the Mossberg website.

The stock is comfortable, I like the more-open pistol grip and recoil is not bothersome. As you say, that stock does not appear in the predator line on Mossberg site.
