Hello Tentman,

  I have a Borchardt and work on them on occasion, all have been quite smooth through the cycle of opening and closing the action. I can not say my HW is any smoother, my Borchardt is fitted a little tighter than any of my Winchesters and would not say I have a real preference. The Borchardt is a strong and interesting action, my only complaint is that there is no true caming action when the block is raised, only the bevel or radius on the top front edge of the breech block. I think every single shot shooter should have at least one in the safe to play with.

Mine are all originals. They work very smooth. Why would you need camming action on a Borchardt? No comparison for strength between a Borchardt and a Highwall. A Highwall will stretch and rattle apart long before a Borchardt.
