    I took the Trapdoor to the group shoot yesterday, and it was as much fun as I knew it would be. Everybody who shot it had a big smile on their face! That's way too much fun for a single-shot rifle.

    Were you able to watch the shiny ass end of the bullets fly to the targets?

    I loaded up 3 groups of 45-70 this summer for my 1886 Cadet. The Trapdoor is a Blast to shoot.

    I used 3 stations on my Redding T3 and a slite crimp on my MEC Marksman.
