Love the Big Boy in .357 and .44, love the Golden Boy in .22LR. They're so nice looking and appear to be made with some serious quality.
My question is...how do you find the front-loading tube thing? I usually prefer a Marlin style loading gate, but since Marlin's quality has been slipping.
Is the front loading tube a pain in the ass, and do you get a stern talkin' to at the range for putting your hand in front of the muzzle to load the gun (as I understand, the action must be closed too for loading...).
Either way, they look like super fun guns, curious of owner's opinions in both rimfire and centerfire models.
