Nope. Haven't even bought ammo for it yet.

Ouch.

For those weird, expensive and hard-to-find revolver calibers, a setup like I have is great. Brass never touches the ground, so you don't really need to clean it (although I usually give it a wash in citric acid plus a little detergent, 'cause I'm nervous about the lead in the primer residue and want to wash at least some of that away before prepping the brass further). Everything you need: a Lee hand press, a box of carbide dies, a cheap caliper and powder scale from Frankford, some dippers, maybe even a powder measure, a couple hundred cases (never "casings" blortch) a pound of powder, a brick of primers, and a box of bullets (ideally HiTek coated) can all fit into a boot box in the bottom of a closet so it won't take over your life to reload for one or two cartridges.

However, due to concern about lead, I wouldn't do it anywhere kids spend time. If they're just passing through (i.e. in the garage) that's probably OK.

the HTA trigger is kinda crappy, but so are most bullpup conversion stocks - but it works and looks great.

Got the carbine out of jail yesterday and took it straight to the range for a little 25 and 50 yard shooting. I found the action of the stock trigger to be OK (a little heavy, but tolerable) but the thing was physically uncomfortable to pull, maybe due to the square edge? So I'm interested to see if I like the HTA trigger better for that reason.
