George Hoenig is a very talented gunmaker and a very creative one as well. I have looked at one of his round action rifles and they are a marvel. The front rotates clockwise to eject the shells down the side of the action instead of breaking down on a hinge pin. It is a very quick way to clear the action but takes abit of getting used to to reload. The workmanship is first rate.
The rifle I looked at was a 470 and weighed about 10 lbs and felt and fit very nicely. He lives around Boise Idaho.
