I have been thinking about getting the Oregunsmithing Bottom Metal for months now. Could somebody make a video of the loading process? Loading from the top and also loading from the bottom? I have not seen any videos of it in action. Im not sure if this is a strange request, but here it is.

Sorry - no time to make a video. The main challenge with any of the mini-actions, Howa & CZ, is there isn’t a lot of excess space/room for anything but the cartridge in Receiver port. Also, if using low rings or a scope rail three it is tough to get adult-size fingers underneath to depress cartridge into blind magazine. Easier to toss a few cartridges up through the bottom and then close floor plate.

Oso Polaris, thanks for your input. That is precisely why I would like to see it in action.
