I have one of the early Miroku models with a steel receiver in .308. It is exceptionally accurate. Favorite bullet weight is 150, which it will usually shoot into 1-1.25" groups at 100yds, but it handles 125gr almost as well and likes 180s just fine. The rifle does not have a tendency to start losing accuracy as it heats up like many tube fed lever actions, at least for a couple of magazines worth fired fairly rapidly.
It carries well in the field, best between the hands, and points quickly. It's easy to mount a scope on; it doesn't look wierd on the BLR like it does on traditional lever rifles. I have mine set up with a 2.5x post and crosshair, about as ideal a setup for this rifle as you could ask for, great for snap shots in cover or plenty precise within 200 yards.
Downside is that the mags for the steel receiver models are scarce and expensive when you can find them. Not a prob with the newer alloy receiver models with flush fit mags. Also, the BLR action does not have the powerful camming action of a bolt gun. I have never had a feeding problem. I use small base dies, but they probably aren't really necessary. If you have a waaay overpressure load it may also be difficult to extract but that hasn't been an issue yet either. However, feeding and extraction in general is butter smooth, ejection is totally positive.
The trigger can best be described as "mushy", not heavy at all, at least on mine, but not glass-breaking crisp. It's not really a problem for a field rifle and from its paper accuracy doesn't appear to be much of one at the bench. Most ARs have far worse triggers.
They are great rifles, plenty accurate, long on performance and something just a little out of the ordinary. They are superb in heavy cover or woods where a snap shot or quick follow-up may be necessary, but work great for open shots too.
