Did you look at the pics of the one Hugh worked on??? That one is pretty well thought out...

Something like this with a long heavy barrel will take some time to match up with a suitable load/bullet that will cycle the action...Experimentation & replacement with various weight springs will likely be required...

Finding the most accurate load will take some time...Do you handload???

It can be a lot of fun...Shooting 5" groups while varying powder loads, and suddenly finding yourself shooting 2" groups with one specific load is very satisfying...
