400NE,

I guess what I'm asking Is it a subjective thing or is there something substantive about Searcy's that makes them less that desireable?

For Instance, like Martini single shots. I enjoy shooting and hunting with them.

I also know that a Ruger Number One is a better overall serious hunting rifle.

The Ruger has a safety the Martini doesn't. The Ruger is less bulky and swings better. The Ruger has a better range of calibers than the Martini. The Ruger is easier to mount a scope on than the Martini. The Ruger has a better load angle than Martini. The Martini has a faster lock time than the Ruger.
The Martini is easier to field strip for cleaning than the Ruger. The Ruger can be cleaned from the breech, the Martini can't.

I still like my Martini's, but for serious hunting give me a Ruger Number One.

What should I look for? I come to this board to look for the answers from those who have the experience. I a long time ago passed the stage of "Yes sir, Aye Aye sir, 3 bags full sir" Now I ask why.

I don't doubt your word, I just don't know what you know. Please educate me, but don't expect me to accept "because I say so"
