The action works excellent and is tight.
This is an excellent action for competition shooting.

My deceased brother purchased this gun at WAC
Gun show in Puyallup WA for 3000 dollars and he
was a gun expert.  Willed it to me at death.

My opinion, this gun is for a shooter who likes old guns
to shoot for pleasure / competition and would be proud to own.
