Husqvarna. With original FN Mauser 98 bolt.Proven very reliable in the the very best and some of the worst conditions British Columbia has to offer.Safety works positively,Trigger is very simple they may not have features, that many other rifles triggers offer, but where I hunt, I have seen one rifle trigger fail so far a couple of times now.My Husky has been drug and exposed to and through anything, and will still bang off anything I want to shoot.Swedish Iron Ore is second to none in the world and they make the best steel in the world.You can't always clean and maintain rifles where I hunt, at 10,000 ft up in the middle of nowhere it is tough to do.You do your best with the little you bring. You don't have the priviledge of being at home with endless supply of cleaning solvents and supplies. Yeah these rifles are tough dependable and accurate hunting tools.
