I don't see any blues in the picture, lot of black and silver.
If your rifle is not in 7.62 and you can't hit what you are aiming at with de-linked machinegun ammo you are a pretender.

44 1/2 style action is a compromise. CF to RF quick change gives up some fictionally with the RF block. You will probably get used to rolling the gun 90 degrees when opening. They drop right out .
Extracting the block vertical sharply works until one slips by causing a jam up.

I haven't had any issues with spent cases falling into the action on this or my other CPA. The High Wall chambered in 22 LR is a whole other matter

Schwartzstock Stevens used a different process. There can be a wide variety in colors with different makers using the same process also. As in Winchester and Remington. From what I understand in talking with some f the best, it is almost impossible to repeat the same colors and pattern of same, even on same receivers. MoJo magic, and what makes it so beautiful, to my eyes at least. You just hope for the best to your liking.

What I mean on the CPA you can pull one out let it fall on top of the lowered block insert a new cartridge & the spent case is pushed out of the action as the block is raised. Works well until it doesn’t.
Never owned a Highwall but expect function is why sometimes see .22 High-walls with the action side cut down. Can see it’s a potential problem Smallbore prone all strapped in, offhand less so.
By the way have only used Douglas barrels number of cast bullet rifles. I think being button rifled they are the most consistent performers long strings, accuracy equal to any barrel.
Just opinion can’t prove it.

I have never had an issue with a spent case falling into a high wall action but have with a 22 low wall and a Stevens 44. The high wall issue is not much room to grab a spent case that is only partially ejected. I have a grabber tool to assist. I sold my 22 high wall with a 9 o’clock extractor. Too many other 22s

That is my experience too. I never ever had a spent case fall into the works on a CPA. I have used a few choice words when loosing one into the low wall.

Doesn’t happen often, my perspective is as a match director club monthly small bore offhand single shot matches & shoot the monthly CF match too. Have seen some things go wrong mostly due user not familiar with them .
Go out on a limb here, excluding national matches we probably have one of largest concentration CPA rifles any club. Some shooters have more than one and there are at least 2 dozen shooters using their rifles. One of mine probably the first around here, 1993.
Any rifle has its quirks, CPA less than most.

Last time I dropped the block on my Stevens Pope .22 Low wall there was a surprise mangled case wedged inside that didn't prevent it from functioning.

Did some more testing today and I’m astonished. CPA is not skipping a beat under new ownership!

That's a pretty good turn around. Guess I better get busy selling a few of the safe children to pay for one.

I think that is about what my CPA with 3 barrels took last year too.

I'm thinking that I'd like to have one barrel in 38-55 and the other in 40-65.
