I have two of these rifles. Recoil is stout. It does however, make for a very light,accurate brush deer rifle. The action is very strong. I have never seen nor heard of one failing. The .32 WSPL was a common conversion in the 60's
One still has the original .310 adjustable sight. It shoots just a little high at 50 yards but shoots to the point of aim at 150 yards. The marks on the sight are very close if you use a 150 grain bullet. A 125 grain bullet really zips out of this little rifle.
The other barrel has Lyman sight and a very tall front sight. It still shoots high and a 6 o'clock hold is needed.
Years ago I tried the Remington 'Accelerator" sabot 22 bullet and had good accuracy at 100 yards. 3,400 fps was reachable.
