I can believe the 55 pts. With bores at .719" makes for a tiny funnel at the end. Shot one squad trap tonite after work. Botton barrel at 40 pts. worked OK snap shooting the straitaways but something funny happening to the pattern further out as had two lucky BB breaks on hard right hands. Could be my lousy shooting also, but I do need to shoot some fiber wad reloads in it before I think about opening the valves. I slapped a few coats of slacum on mine and I did remove the retainer screws in the Kersten extensions that secure the ejectors. Did you know there's a double spring in the well behind those things? Looks like one of those duplex springs in some pistol I saw on some stupid gun show (Boddington's probably).

Single Kersten? Not seen by yt. Emil Flues had em two different depths in the breech of the Flues SBT. I don't think I'd disable the kickers on this one as pretty easy to block the empties altho I can't catch em airborne as in a worn in/out heavy barreled Citori.
