I’ve had a few of the bolt actions, I like the calibre. It’s the Dirty Harry of rimfires in terms of performance. Unfortunately it’s also a dirty cartridge full stop, I suspect that may be one factor for reliability issues in a semi. Perhaps that’s just a result of a decent amount of powder in the case (for a rimfire) having nowhere to go because of the small calibre. Anyway it’s fine in a bolt action, there’s also an under lever available now, suspect that may need careful cleaning but have no first hand experience with it. Devastating on possums, hares, rabbits etc.
