Update. I shot 250 rnds through the gun. Had a handful of FTFs. A couple were probably shooter error though. The gun seems to be getting better and better though. Much smoother all around. I am going to clean it tomorrow and cycle another 100 rnds through it. I think it will be perfect.

1) the mag slap auto load first round (see part 1) was gone after the first 6 shots and never resurfaced with sunsequent mag changes

2) The gun is a little tack driver out of the box IMHO at 7-10 yards.

3) trigger pull is very smooth and smoother at the end of the session. Very little load up BUT the trig reset is so long that I was just about released. I will really focus on this as the gun loosens up but i think that trigger slapping could be a problem for me with this reset

4) well balanced overall.

5) these guns are tight-wow.

6) backstrap checkering a little too rough for the caliber. The recoil with that sharp of checkering can be a little hard on the hands. However, I like the positive grip it provides too so it is a wash. I realize this is not a range gun.

Final report after cleaning and retesting another 100 rnds.
