What sort of problems?

I only ask about .44 Sp because I'm a fan. It has good ballistics and is easier on the shoulder.

Failure to feed problems are discussed in other locations of the forum. You might be able to find a solution in old threads. If not, fire up a new one. There are plenty of knowledgeable members who are eager to help. Or, if you're happy with your solution, carry on. I've never had any FTF problems with either Mag or Specials, but I've done all the Steve's Gunz action work.
