    I've never owned a flip-up breech rifle. Nothing against them and I'd certainly be more than willing to give one a home. Nothing to add in technical terms other than it's a safety & convenience vs efficiency thing and, as mentioned above, if the desired power can be achieved whilst maintaining pleasant shooting characteristics, I can't see anything not to like, really.

    The one problem with them is due to the long length of the transfer this absorbs power.
