It won't eject 3" star crimped or 28gm 1250fps shells reliably.
Aside from that it works an absolute treat. The lever is pretty light and if you leave your thumb on it the recoil operates it for you
Mines a walnut one with a 28" barrel and its a little heavy and long but well balanced.
Not sure what ghost loading is so can't answer that one. If its loading a shell on top of the lifter as well as having one in the chamber and a full mag,then no you can't. Or at least I can't.

Ghost loading is when you fill the tubular mag and then put another shell on the feed ramp and another shell in the breach but close the bolt so the shell on the feed ramp is not picked up by the bolt as it closes . Net effect is it adds 1 more shell to max capacity .

Cool to know about the recoil assistance, also is there a break in period. I've heard of people saying the inertia spring loosens up after heavy loads then you can fire lighter loads. If that's the case just run a bunch of 00sg or slugs lol. But sounds like you've been running 3 inches and can't cycle 28gram 1250fps. How many shots have you put through it?

Probably 150 so far
