I am really liking mine. (I already posted above, #26.) Had it out for range trip #2. I upped the powder charge in the 124 grain loads and that was a big improvement. The bullet shot a lot flatter and it seemed more accurate. I was able to consistently ring the 200 yard gong. I'm going to increase the charge another 1/2 grain and see how they do.
My light load of 1.5 grains of Bullseye under a 105 grain SWC shot cloverleafs at 50 feet.

I have a question; Does it hurt the extractor to single load this firearm? I was loading some wadcutters into the chamber and it didn't seem to take any extra force to close the bolt, but I'm wondering if it hurts the extractor claw for it to ride over the cartridge rim.
