Clark,
for an antigue, or a collectable, this just MIGHT be acceptable until it could be reregulated.. but for a new DGR, it is totally unacceptable. Case being, if the chips are down, and you are reloading quickly, the THING on your mind is to stuff both chambers... and if you bobble the ammo, you now are going to have something that (potentially) shoots WORSE with the wrong barrel's ammo than if there was one median load between them.

send it back to merkel... and have a fit!!

or, send it to me.. i'll send you one of my pedersoli 58 front stuffers to practice with, and i'll get it back to you when i've "worn" it in!!
