    With a hammer block safety the firing pin mounts in the face of the hammer in the same way as the original. And the trigger quality is not diminished. From a design standpoint the original designs...

    Yes I was aware of this model. I do not know if it has a retractable firing pin or a hammer block type safety. Is this on all new stuff?

    So I purchased an 1875 "Outlaw" by Taylor's manufactured by Uberti. Very good price. Upon getting it I made several measurements. The cylinder wall thickness between the chambers is greater than a...

    I have a 32-20 (.308) 10" barrel and a 357 Herrett 14" barrel and a 375 WIN barrel that I'd part with. I have dies for all these too. It doesn't matter the action. All Contender barrels will work....

    Anybody mic or gauge the throats? Also, do any of these have a hammer block or retractable firing pin or transfer bar safety?

    So Remingtons don't have recessed rims I assume. It seems most load data is for 1.6" OAL, so the Remington should be fine.

    The blot stop cuts seem larger on Remingtons, or is this just me?

    The Remington is 1.557 long and...

    I didn't know the cylinder is shorter. This could be a big problem. Most bullets in 45 colt are set up for the SAA length cylinder I suppose. Thanks!

    This is my experience exactly. Soft alloy works best. I usually worked with either 16:1 or 20:1 Pb:Sn. If I did use antimony it was balanced by weight with tin. I settled on an alloy of 96-2-2 as...

    It is CIP proofed for 44 Magnum. Kind of the last word for "is it strong enough?" Due to the larger diameter and greater case capacity similar energies can be achieved in 45 Colt to 44 Magnum with...

    Uberti 1873 hunter

    This seems interesting to me.

    1860 Grip-frame is my favorite.

    I suspect it is built on the same frame as the Cimmaron Bad Boy. This means it has a retractable firing pin.

    Unlike the Bad...

    Yes, but only up to the available bullet weights. With the 250-280 grain bullets that may be ideal for cast applications, you will need to extrapolate. This is why I think QUICKLOAD would be great.

    Considering that 35 Remington has both lower peak pressure than the 30-40 and a smaller case capacity than the 30-40 or 35-40, one would think you could use 35 Remington data without problem as well.

    432 Hammer by M-P

    Anyone have an opinion on this bullet?

    I really enjoy the 359 Hammer. This reminds me of LBT WFN type designs. Is it stable at longer ranges?

    Any loads? Forgive me if this has already been...
