when I slugged my Type 99.......

I noticed the slug gave way not to far from the muzzle.


I fell to the reciever about 8 inches from the muzzle,


unlike my #4 Lee. I had to beat the slug all the way to


the reciever and finally dropped out at the throat.


The slug I used was .320, seemed plenty big enough


for the purpose.





Is my barrel shot out?





Also does this rifle have a very deep throat? I made a dummy round with a 150 grain Hornady and it didn't reach


the rifling. I read that the original loading is with 185


grain bullet, so it's longer than 150 grainer.
