I agree with Lowe, they aren’t much when used hard and not taken care of. I bought one from my local pawn/gun shop with the stipulation that it would shoot a tolerable pattern, which it never did. I owned a BAR in 3006 that was accurate and dependable, but it was a bear to carry. Been a bolt action person since. The Winchester 100 was a good one too but only used it 1 trip, borrowed from a friend.
