only issue is that if you like it, you'll likely be looking for excuses to find more barrels in all sorts of calibers which can get expensive. have had lots of barrels, lots of frames, no real issues. after i got used to the weight of the TC's though, even mid-weight bolt guns feel heavy. have quite a few 'tender barrels that beat MOA accuracy.

if you handload, the 30/30Ackely Improved is the bomb-diggity in a trim 6# gun. wink
