I can't speak for the 406 folks, but based on my experience with them, had you wanted to pursue it, I think they would have made it right. Could have been just a fluke. JMO.
I spent most of my money on shotguns, fly rods, guitars and banjos. The rest I just wasted. (Apologies to W.C. Fields)

PrairieSchooner, there was another issue that no one here knows about and you will not know about it. I had a talk with Tom last night and got that resolved. I will try another 406.
Thanks, Tom!
