Most of us have to reload as our pistols and rifles are tuned to the point we cannot use factory ammo. I cannot even use CCI primers on mine as the firing pin strike is so light and fast I have to use federal primers. The cci are just to hard. It is a pure speed game! We go fast! It is nothing for us to have 6-8 brass in the air rocking our lever actions. Most are what is called short stroked. We change the internals so that you greatly reduce the “arc” of the lever to cycle a round. Utilizing very little movement to cycle the round thereby increasing your cyclic speed. It is just a great time.
