BLR takedown ??

[blargon]

While we're on the lever topics, has anyone seen or handled this BLR 81 takedown yet? Just wondering how solid the takedown mechanism is, and how reliable this thing is gonna be.

That would be neat if you could alternate calibers on the same action. Something like a 7/08 and a 358 would be a nice mix.

I want one in 308 so I can bore it out to 338 Fed. Les

I can't help wondering how those alloy receivers are going to hold up, after repeated matings with a steel barrel shank. Has anybody seen one? Is there a steel bushing permanently bedded in the receiver?
