P.S. sorry about your luck. Call Kirk and get it fixed.

Where can a man go and get all this help in less than 12 hours? (answer: nowhere). Best 40 bucks I spend every year. Thank you all.

My goal is not to cut the barrels. I think I'd just leave it in the safe before doing it. But I think with all the ideas here I'll be shooting 30" barrels again one day.

Another strategy is to put it in a closet and wait until new technology makes a new and better solution possible. Of course you don't know if that is going to take ten months or ten years.

Best,


Mike

...or if today's technology may be lost to time and your heirs turn it in to the local constabulary to be destroyed as a "disposable old junker".

For those who have asked, I wasn't using reloads but rather RST paper, 2 1/2", 1 1/16 oz, #8.
