pjaln:
Glad to hear some-one else does not feel obligated to worship at the 'hinged floor-plate' alter. I admit the Oberndorf lever is a neat gadget, and my Kurz Mauser has one, but for a no-nonsense working rifle I love the standard military floor. You can open it in a few seconds if you need to, for cleaning or whatever, but it will never drop open in the shooting field.

I'll happily remove unused cartridges one at a time with the partially-cycled bolt, rather than have a floor-plate spring open and dump cartridges in every direction. Hinged floor-plates always stuck me as 'clumsy'.

Apologies for rant, now back to the Peruvian...
