Surgeon Actions-quality of action - fit and finish

[PFAK]

All you owners of Surgeon actions. Can you tell me the pro's
and cons of the actions. Would you buy another one? Looks very nice from the pictures, but I have never seen one. I think
the integral rail is a great idea. Any comments would be appreciated. The model I am considering is #1086 LA repeater.
Thank you for any input.

Don't own one yet, but have inspected, handled and shot a bunch of Surgeon actioned rifles. First class product, first class company.

Might have one of their actions on order though ;D

I have a tac rig built with a Surgeon 591. It is a great action that is very stiff and robust. The one piece bolt and integral rail are a nice touch. It's not quite as smooth as my Borden Alpine but it is a great action for the money. I would buy one again in a heartbeat.

I have a 591 and fit and finish were 100%.

I've assembled one for a customer. The function was fine but finish was OK at best.
