Great looking gun, you got a nice one. If you plan on shooting it much at all I would highly recommend not using high velocity ammo in it. Would be a shame to shoot it loose. Enjoy it thou, they are...

The last time I bought cast bullets was from BullX so it's been awhile :) But it is good to see any firearms related new buisiness doing well.

Sounds simular to a 25bee, did he have anything chambered in it or maybe custom dies? That sounds like an interesting little round.

Looks like a good way to sell more barrels. Imagine increased barrel erosion caused by the hot jets of propellent gases coming throu the bullet ports.
