Had one for a while- that sharp lump at the rear of the action was the turn-off for me. There was too much drop and I was always looking at that lump when I cheeked the gun to shoot at a bird. Instead of simply re-stocking it or padding up the comb, I traded it for a Sportsman 48 - Remington SA when I was 16, seems to me.

The Reminton fit and shot well for me. I really liked the action's power adjuster for light or heavy loads.

I NEVER hit anything with the third shot from either of those guns, but always fired it. LOL

I then went to a SxS's and O/U's. My 'scores' were unchanged - usually 2 hits when I wasn't screwing up.
