John Browning was sorta nutty.

H&R. Their cheap little rifles were a fantastic way to get certain chamberings that would have otherwise been very expensive. They were also a fantastic platform to wildcat off of.

Marlin. Let's be honest, their quality control has gone to shit and I avoid newly made guns like the plague. I've heard of 45-70 lever guns being shipped out with half of the freaking rifling missing. How the hell does that slip through the cracks?

Remington. Like Marlin, their quality control is nonexistent.

Remington Outdoor Company AKA Freedom Group killed them all.

Actually I lost interest in reloading. That is some boring stuff.

Honestly, I think I have more fun reloading and testing new loads than shooting. I guess it's not for everyone though.

Bet it was popular with the rich open class Metallic Shilloute shooters.

No, it was too heavy. It could be used but the XP and Wichita platforms were always better, if you preferred a bolt action.

Give it 5-10 years and their guns will be featured on "Forgotten Weapons". They're not the first gun maker to go out this way and they sure won't be the last.
