The Browning 1885 is a very nice action. It is pretty, well finished, small, strong, and well made. They have been used as the basis for custom rifles for over 100 years (though most were made by Winchester, I attribute the action to JM Browning, the man, not Browning the company). No doubt the others are nice actions too, and probably much fancier. My tastes are simple though; I would chose the elegant Browning over an extravagant action.
