Sorry, my bad.

What did you not like about the gun?

I just thought it looked really cool, it sure would make a great gun to put over a fireplace, though.
The box magazine makes the action portion too blocky-heavy and messes up the balance. The Browning designs that use a tubular magazine handle a lot better!

As Briman says, if you want to use bolt-action cartridges, use a Savage 99 or a Browning BLR.....
