Well, let's see. Mr. Petzal has a push feed, fluted bolt rifle with a trigger safety and a bolt which almost certainly, although I couldn't confirm this, has a non-integral bolt handle. That's four strikes against it already. He attaches a lot of importance to the ease with which the bolt is operated, but makes no mention of the feeding qualities of the action. The rifle has a muzzle brake, which he recommends removing while hunting, because of the danger to the trackers' ears. What about his fellow shooters at the rifle range?

Thank you very much, but I prefer this .416 Rigby, presently gracing my gun room:
