Yep.. those of us that shoot the toggle link rifles are stuck with "The ammunition is, in fact, the cartridge stop and is part of the feeding mechanism. " Good crimps in the right place are the deal with these rounds! Nice article.. thanks for putting up the link...

Wow, as a toggle-link illiterate myself ... I found that very well done / easy to understand. The setup on the wood showing the movement was great. I had always wondered how they did that special modification to some 1873's in 22 to get them to feed all of the various rounds and now I think I can visualize it thanks to that tutorial.
