I appreciate all the info & advice. I do have an issue that needs resolved, the gun doesn't lock up properly and the top lever doesn't return to center unless the barrels are removed... I've thoroughly cleaned the action and inspected every contact point surface for burrs...and I haven't found any. Any advice for competent gunsmiths in the Spokane, Wa. area that I can entrust this rifle to?
