BC17A, sorry for the delay.
The Shield EZ barrel and chamber are great. No problems there. It’s got a little bit, estimate 1/16” freebore before the leade into the rifling starts. I haven’t tried loading any jacketed yet and may not get there.
When I get back to loading for it again I’m thinking I’ll either use a 77 gr TC I bought for 32acp or the 105 RF I bought for 32 SWL. I’m very happy with my big old 177 out of the case wadcutter. But I’ll try to branch out a little.
Someone asked about a fireball. I haven’t seen any from mine. I have shot it some at an indoor range but didn’t see any fireball. I just shot a 4 inch 44 Magnum at that indoor range with 28 gr 300mp and a 215 gr boolit. That was a fireball I could see!
