Let's Go Off Topic
OK smokepole addics, things are getting a little slow on the forum. Maybe it would be OK to commit a small off-topic sin.
What cartridge rifles do you own?
Mine are:
Browning B-78 25-06 single shot falling block.
Browning 1885 45-70 single shot falling block.
Savage M40 .22 Hornet single shot bolt action.
Remington Model 67 .22 Short/Long/Long Rifle single shot bolt action.
NEF "Sportster" Model SS1 .22 WMR single shot break open.
Winchester Model 1890 .22 Long pump action (with shot out barrel - this was my dad's gun, bought new when he was a teenager, got about 67 gazillion rounds through it).

cayugad,
The Hipoint works well, it lacks the frilly looks of the expensive ones, but if kept clean, it works well. The gun has good fiber optic sights and I found that it shoots winchester well but jams on cci. Other than that, can't beat it for the money, and at some point, I would love to pick up another, perhaps in the caliber you are looking at.
