    The 'rub' is that Jim Clark made his 'stippling' 'tiger toothing' right OR left handed.

    I bought my MADORE built wad cutter gun from Perry Shooter, at 50 yards off a Ransom rest it shot ten rounds into a 1-1/4" group using cast 200 SWC's and 4.4 grains of VV310.  A well build wad gun lasts for many thousands of rounds and break in to glass smooth actions.  Mine is no exception.  I would like to have that Clark, but funds are too low to bid right now.

    The gun the old man built for me is nice.  I took it to the range and shot a few mags, after about 20 round the gun went full auto on me.  Well everyone was looking at me like WTH.  I put another mag in and away we go BRAAAAAAP 8 down range.  I put the gun up and a week or so later went up to see him.  He laughed and said I should have charge you more for that :D  I cracked up.  He fixed it right there, took about 45 min and we to the range he has behind the shop.  We loaded up 10 mags and put them through the gun.  Worked fine.  It runs like a top now. 
    I am sorry to say I don't shoot it much anymore but its a fine gun with a colt upper and a caspian lower.
