[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 1274037, member: 13632"] Action is faced with an end mill, when you tighten a barrel on one you can see skips where it makes contact so it can't be square and won't tighten up nice. Bolt needs toroidal lugs because bolt is so loosely fit it would embarrass a Mauser, short spring with below normal pin fall and lightened pin. Timing is poor and the whole cocking cycle is full of compromises. An action works best when simple, there is no need to put everything we have been working away from all into one action, way, way to many parts, you can tell an engineer went crazy with it because it so much more complicated than need be. WAY over priced for what it is, if you get it coated you can buy two Borden action which have zero compromises and much higher quality of machine work. Not trying to hack your choice but just being real with what it is, ya it'll shoot, maybe, I know of one company that has had serious issues with a whole set of training rifles built on them and at great expense replaced them all with time tested designs. Your rifle shoots good because of a good barrel!! [/QUOTE]
