How well does it eject fired brass? If it's like the one I recently brought home, it barely clears the action.

I fixed mine & now it ejects like an original - about 10' :thumbsup:

I had the H&R Cavalry model trapdoor. No issues with extraction or ejecting. For me I found a little tilt to the right as I was opening the breech helped clear the action. No science here, I just seemed to do that. Also, and not trying to be a smarty, the amount of force in opening the breech seemed to make a difference as well. I usually just "smartly" opened it, with the little tilt and the empties ended up about a foot or less away.
