- Well, this is just the opposite from my experience with MY hardballer.
- Great trigger, feeds anything (including lead semi wadcutters)
- flawlessly. The adjustable rear sight is a little cheap, but whadda ya
- want for the money?? It works OK for me, and the zero doesn't change,
- so it's servicable.
-
- Maybe the reason Mike couldn't get any action on the letters is because
- AMT has reorg'ed & moved a couple times, and they may not have gotten
- his letters?? Just a speculation..........
