I bought this gun to use as a rifle for hunting coyotes and deer so using the magazine is a necessity. If I have to single load it it is really of no use to me.
I once boughthe a remington 300 saum that had a crooked chamber. It would show pressure signs with factory ammo and with very low charge weights of powder. This 243 will easily reach max in the 4 different powders I have tried.
