Very happy so far.
The action has the stiffness of being new, but has operated flawlessly out of the box. No missfeeds, missfires or any other unwanted surprises.
I put a Nikon Buckmaster scope on it, with see-through mounts. Started with a box of low velocity Remingtons (1300 fps), then switched to the Hornady LeverEvolutions high velocity rounds (2100fps). As stated, no feed/eject problems at all with the Hornady rounds. The redesigned, dimpled, follower seems to have cured the last round "getting cockeyed in the tube" problem I read about somewhere.
