    Well some people just have a different opinion of what is " working well" , or have fired enough rounds through guns to see a pattern . After about 4000 rounds through 48 Carcanos, I saw the problems . I only had real problems in less than half the rifles . It is tight lands that cause the problems , worn bores will be less prone to have them . The Hornady bullet itself is ok , just not for Carcanos . It shoots great in my Type -30's and early Type -38 Arisakas .
