I have had the Brazilian at the range and it is a nice rifle. I posted about it on here a little while ago. It will not be coming back on the market any time soon.

I had the Argentine at the range yesterday. I shot it at 100 yards on a PL7 target. A few shots to find out the elevation on the sight required and to find a sight picture and aiming point that was not too blurry. The last eight shots were slightly to the left though that could be aiming error. The four in the black are in 1 1/4 inch and the other four are in 2 1/2 inches, all eight shots in 3 1/2 inches. I thought that was not too bad for a 111 year old barrel with a worn throat.
