1870/87/15 Vetterli Safe to Shoot?

The 6.5 Carcano converted Vetterli rifles. Are they safe to shoot? Do they have known headspace issues? Are there any known issues or pecadillos we need to be aware of? Any feedback or knowledge you have would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Sincerely,

Marky www.
