Good bad day

Sent a few cylinders off to Fermin a little over a week ago, went out today to give them a test run. The NM Flattop 45 shot as well as ever, only noticeable difference was the leading, before it had always leaded just a bit, even with powder coated bullets, it also was loathe to chamber a 45-270SAA bullet sized .452, both of those issues are now resolved, leading, none, nada, I mean zero, zilch, and it rand the 45-270SAA bullets like a champ. Amazingly, even with my diminishing eyesight, it shoots almost as accurately as does my FA 454. The 10mm shot well with the 180gr heavy clad bullets from Xtreme Bullets, and despite recently acquiring 300 pieces of Starline 38-40 brass, and managing to load up a box of 20 to try, I remembered the ammo, but not the cylinder, I'm kicking my own butt, try again on Columbus Day hopefully.
