It did shoot a bit better that way. It also preferred the longer brass. The double set trigger was a pain, as the triggers had to be set before you could fire it, which was really a pain if you wanted to let the hammer down on a live round without an AD.

I don't like it either and have found the safest way is to just drop the lever and eject the round. I've got to go into mine...its taking two sets to finally kick the sear out of the notch. It didn't start out this way so maybe its debris. The Pedi's have a tension adjustment on the trigger spring and I'm wondering if the Ublerrtis do too.
