I know that the straight casing on the .45 LC has some extraction issues in Henry's and Winchesters. Basically since it is not tapered like the .44/40 it tends to "drag" out.
Has anyone noticed such issues with the repop Spencers? Has the long staright cause anyone frustration with feed or ejection? I prefer .45 and all my guns are, but I also know the Spencer's reputation for feeding and since it will be used mostly for public demos with Ten X blanks, I can't decide on a .44 or a .45 and I can't seem to get a side by side comparison.
Any comments will be very welcome.
