Default Re: Don, here are a number of thoughts

Thanks Frank. ALL of the mags work manually. When I put an empty mag in and pull the toggle back, it always holds open. Some ammo works well with a certain combination of gun and mag, but not with another combination.


(For my test last night, I was trying to obeserve what it looked like inside the gun when I was shooting. I loaded a snap cap in the mags, inserted the mags in the guns, with the cannons removed, and then briskly stripped the snap cap off the mag with my thumb. There was a tremendous variation between different combinations of mags, guns, and switching h.o. mechanisms between guns.)


Regarding ammo, I generally shoot Winchester white box 115 gr FMJ. I did find that 147 grain Winchester FMJ, which is hard for me to find, works flawlessly in terms of h.o. in both guns. I guess because the heavier slug must cause more chamber pressure. But I also hear you guys say to shoot the lightest bullet possible to be kind to your gun.


Sorry to be so long-winded about this, but any comments would be appreciated. Thanks.
