I'm interested how it works in combination with cast boolits

I do not have one but I like the looks of it. I wonder though, it says it has a fluted forcing cone but it also appears to have a fluted chamber. Don't know if I like that or not. It is fully ramped as well which puts me out of the market for it, I have a couple of different caliber barrels for my 1911 so I can't add a fully ramped barrel without devaluing my current barrel investment.

Gain twist rifling is supposed to be very good for cast though from what I've read.

I have one of these in my 9mm open gun. I don't see why it would not work with good CB's. After paying as much as I did for my open gun I only shoot CMJ (coverd bases) bullets so my compensator doesn't fill up with lead. Pushing a 125 gr lead bullet at 1,400 fps is not good for the comp.

I do know that there are Limited shooters with these barrels in .40 S&W and they shoot lead bullets with good results.
