Its more a matter of amo cost and availability for me. But the more I mull things over, the more it seems like I'm not really going to find a bolt gun too much better for what I do than the Husky's I already own. I could spend quite a bit of money and end up only marginally better off at best. The traditional lever gun option might be worth more serious consideration.
