    To some small extent it may but don't expect it to reduce bolt lift 50%, it ain't gonna happen. BTW, Sharpshooter originated the idea years ago using a shortened 38/357 case with a ball bearing glued in the primer pocket. You can make them for a lot less then 8 bucks!

    You'll also have to shorten the BAS. Measure the cocking piece sleeve end to end without it and one with it installed to the end of the bearing. The difference is the amount the BAS need to be shortened.
