about twice the weight of lead --- 8x150=1200 - - - 5x500=2500 grains. double the weight of the 30-06 load.

if i were trying to run it i would try 4 rounds, then 3 rounds, etc until i had a 2-shot.
after that i would try a different projectile shape to see what happens
after that i suppose the entire action needs to be blue-fit

but i think the big problem is the spring power trying to lift all that weight, along with a poorly fitted clip.

Big BUT, I would love to shoot it :)
