    Over 40yrs old, factory fluting and a bolt that is nearly as small in diameter as a Forbes bolt, nothing new under the sun! and unlike the clanky/ rattly/ bindy Forbes, the bolt is slick and you can feel the engineering in the thing. (have handled two forbes rifles and it put me off, felt like tonka toy engineering) - (zzzzzzz goes the reel in a minute!)
    Thats because its a Tikka ;-) My M595 has a lovely slick smooth action too. They know how to make rifles.
