Prayers up. but it ain't the age group. A pal of mine just buried his 28-yr-old friend due to leukemia. A 34-yr-old pal of mine just died 2 weeks ago of leukemia. The good Lord has His own plans and reasons ..... and sometimes, even when we know and trust in that, well, we just don't find the comfor...

+1 Perry .... I ease out the brass, it just lays there, no ejection out of the action. I'm confident my Trapper ejection system is designed to eject the brass as soon as the front edge of the brass clears the chamber during extraction because the ejector face is always pressing against the brass. An...

I just looked at my 2002-vintage Winchester Trapper in .45LC. It too has lousy ejection, always has. The ejector spring is very anemic. A project (not yet to the top of my list) is to seriously stretch that ejector spring to exert some serious ejection shove onto the brass.
