Yes they are definitely expensive, but all the ones I have handled have been very well made and I just don't know where you can get that quality new anymore. I like that they feed shorts and any length CB's without a hitch too.
Used Brownings, Winchesters and Marlins are all nice, quality rimfire levers. I wish I had one of each. Hopefully ill run across the right Marlin in the near future.
