The paracord on the lever not only looks cool, but I bet it’s quite functional as a knuckle pad.
Thanks and yes it does save knuckles.

Good looking target set-up and fine looking shooters there Paul. What's the load?
Thanks Tom. The load I've been using is 158 gr. RNFP from Sinclair Enterprise, 6.2 of Universal over a small pistol primer. I prefer to use small pistol magnum primers but I'm out of those. I've also used small rifle primers (non-magnum) with the same result as the magnum small pistol primer. The magnums or rifle primers give a little more punch and add about 50-60 fps. Right now I saving my last small rifle primers for .223 loads since I've been shooting a lot of those.

Is that in your back yard Paul
I wish it was in my backyard. I can set up to about 35 yards in my yard but I don't like to shoot the heavy steel with large calibers. Too much noise and I respect my neighbors. I usually keep it to .22 in the yard.

That’s about my limit too.
