    I haven't put the effort in to say definitively . During ammo testing it would drop into the .3s with elly match and RWS supersonic HP, the odd .2 . I shoot mostly cci subs for rabbits etc and it can put 5 into .3 ish but not always. Shooting over the labradar is telling, the cci has horrible ES , can be upwards of 90fps where as the elly match is very good.

    Yes lugs , on the front of the bolt, standard length for a rim fire so no to the "silly long" comment.

    Its an interesting design. The bolt body/lugs revolve around a center which holds the case,extractors and firing pin

    I have a couple of Gevarm rifles, an E1 rough takedown but the other E3 is in pretty good shape and is a straight shooter.

    Occasionally it’ll have FTE but is otherwise reliable. Pulled it out the other day and forgot it fires from the open bolt which perplexed me for some time.

    This little semi has sent many a possum to the marsupial afterlife.

    I wonder if anyone has any of the rare 25 round mags that didn’t end up in the crusher.

    Well if you call an extra 12 mm silly then OK. Its exactly the same length as my weihrauch rear locking rimfire.

    The lock time with the open bolt firing takes some getting used to - mine has a shorter barrel and suppressor is weird to fire using subs, it seems as if the bolt slamming forwards is knocking the bullet out of the rifle - ‘clunk’ then ‘whump’ when bullet hits.

    One negative with that design Is using a scope sight - too easy for point of impact to change depending on pressure on fore-end.

    [QUOTE=sneeze;1063173]Mauser M201 22LR. Front locking action.

    Very nice @sneeze. I’m a 201 fan as well. Full sized rifle and beautifully made. Here’s mine alone side my Dakota M10.

    Far better piece of wood on yours, nice. Yes I prefer a full sized rimfire as well. I sold my anschutz because it was to small and to light.
