My best buddy has one (3 1/2"). In the last three years it has only jammed once due to ice. We hunt/shoot together a lot so, I see it action quite a bit. It has cycled many different loads without any problems. The only thing he would change is to have it in camo. It's very similar to my Browning Gold 3 1/2". The Gold has a few more features but, also cost more. I think it's a very under rated gun.
