I had one a short while and enjoyed playing with it

I was horrified I was going to break something or crack the frame etc. We dropped the "bolt accelerator" in some tall grass. Maybe that was the beginning of my anxiety. Back in 1975 or so it was the coolest of the cool and cost almost $500! Crazy high. You could buy a used truck for $500 back then and drive it to work for years!

They were really innovative for the day and work surprisingly well. Accuracy is truly the rival of a modern bolt action rifle if the shooter is up to it. To be as successful as it was and chambered for basically roll your own rounds is a testament to the men at the front of the game back then. Some of my heroes, warts and all.

It was a pleasure to give it a whirl.
