quick I was wondering if you had any rotational movement of your adapter while shooting it. It would seem easy to identify as the ejectors margin of lining up is small.
Thanks Don.

That may be more of a problem in a smoothbore, but in the rifled bore it was a chore to just get it lined up with the ejector, the only rotating was as it followed the rifling. Thinking more about it, I think the pistol primers and the large firing pin was the cause of the primer cratering and action breaking open hard, it's a really mild load at less than 24kcup.

Thanks quick. I am thinking that there isnt much rotational energy to barrel or we would feel it much more especially in our light pistols. I hope that some who have used these in smooth bores will confirm this before I make costly mistake on assuming.
Thanks Don
