Possibly, but I'm usually skeptical when a cheaper product appears.
There are too many examples where lowered costs require less quality control with assembly, or lower quality steel.
This might not matter so much on bolt vs. semi-auto rifles, but so many semi-autos contracted by Century Arms come to mind.
IO ceased production of their AKMs due to low quality steel and "price point" assembly.
If these factors Don't very often reduce the quality of bolt-action rifles, then good. My only interest is quality and where possible, having the option of wood over plastic. Character.
