None of mine. His parameters are opinions, and he used his opinions to eliminate many great guns.
Back when I was purchsing Police Cars...... I wanted Fords, but had to be fair and balanced. So when we created techinical specs, we just specified 351 cu inch engines.....
Two piece firing pins and two piece bolts and using the trigger mechanism are not things that would make me disapprove of a great rifle.

I wonder about Sako
Forum says "Veteran Tracker". I could not track a garbage truck into a fireworks factory.

Saw my F-I-L's Husqvarna on there, which I now have. He bought back during WW II when he was stationed in Germany. Very smooth shooting gun.

that list is a joke, I own a howa/vanguard and in no way shape or form is it even in the same ballpark as my browning a-bolt or my remmy 700 5R.

I have several of these and several others I believe are better than some of the ones listed.
Smoothest action listed 1903 Mannlicher but with the split receiver scope mounting is a pain.
Winchester 70, Mauser 98 and CZ variation, and Howa 1500 (Weatherby Vanguard) are all others I have, with the 98 probably being the most copied action ever.
There are many fine actions that did not make the list and some I would put ahead of ones that did. Sako, Sauer, Styer, TC Icon, Blaser, Remington 700 are some that come to mind. Just my opine yours may vary
lf the saying "Liar, Liar your pants on fire" were true Mainstream news might be fun to watch

My 798 did, but to not have a model 10 or 700? Just proves how crappy this list is.
