Well Hombre, I know at one point you we're so frustrated you were about ready to turn it into a boat paddle, or a wall decoration or a war club or something more useful than a 464.
I will say this about mine: I am certain I have not achieved the accuracy that this rifle will attain; but I don't believe that that number will ever be very impressive, and perhaps not even impressive for a 30-30.
It took me quite a bit of effort to get the gun to run correctly, partly because of excess coating in the receiver, and partly because I jammed it when it was new and scuffed that coating up, and then jacked up the extractor when I removed it from the bolt improperly.
Now that all of those things are fixed I'm at a point where I'm ready to start playing with the gun a little bit to try and make it more accurate, but I keep buying other guns to distract me from this exercise. Also I have not successfully made many good handloads for the 30-30. That is another issue that I have wanted to work on.
But this summer I've been distracted by a lot of boating and fishing and boat repair and fixing up my backyard and the 464 has languished half-forgotten in the back of my safe.
