I have one, and I've owned a few over the years. They are, indeed, pretty.
They are not what you want for benchrest competition, surely, but every one I've seen has shot plenty well enough. The one I own now is an RSI model- 20" barrel and a mannlicher style forend, in 7x57. That rifle shoots groups just barely over an inch with a hunting load- a 140 Nosler Partition at 2800 fps. Single shot actions are much shorter than bolt actions, so #1's tend to be shorter than a bolt rifle with similar barrels. My RSI is a tad shorter than a Winchester 94 with a 20 bbl. Handy in the woods. I've hunted with that rifle for almost 20 years now, and I haven't found any drawback to it yet.
