I bought one about 15 years ago in 32wcf only. Haven’t shot it much but so far it’s pretty good.

Re: The PO really P's me off
Seems to be the norm for the USPS. I’m supposed to have a very expensive Muzzleloading pistol coming from Indiana to NE Kansas and all it says is in transit and delayed. The sender mailed a shipping over payment the same day and it got here over a week ago. What a joke.

Re: Pellet Guns
Probably not the case but you normally don’t want lite weight or alloy pellets in high powered spring piston guns due to not enough back pressure to prevent piston impact when fired. That’s about all I got on the matter.

Thanks Six I’ll PM ya. Did you get a 406 to shoot in your rifle without leading. I think I have a lee factory crimp for my 38wcf so will have to find it. I had chambering problems after about ten shots when residue built up in the chamber neck. It sounds like my rifle and yours are identical.
