    Too noisy even with a suppresser, 18in barrel better.

    No but I wouldn't touch with fourty foot barge pole after seeing the results in friends new sako...some cases fine,some very flat primers,some blown primers.booted like shit and loud. The inconsistency shocked me.never seen that in factory rounds before,not once in fourty years.
    75/15/10 black powder matters
