Does anyone own one and what are your impressions? Particularly how do they feed, extract, and eject? Thanks.

I have one. It's blued/walnut. It feeds, extracts and ejects fine. I tried quite a few different 55 grain bullets over some RL-15 and never got one to shoot to my satisfaction. Sierra match bullets were OK but still around 1.25 inches at 100 yds.

Then I tried some 52 Gr. Berger bullets both the match style and their Varmit bullets. They shot lights out. Under .5 inches at 100 yds.

I wasn't pleased with their new, so called improved, trigger. It's not adjustable, but I found that Wolff gunsprings sells a reduced power trigger spring which is very easy to replace. For a few $$ it made a big difference in the trigger.
