I’ve had trouble too with my 1873 Uberti in 45 colt. I slugged the barrel . There was a tight spot under the rear sight. I have not had much luck with my own casting, but the .455 Remington swaged...

Wow, thanks for starting this thread. Several pages here and I admit I didn’t read all the posts. I searched out and bought a new Winchester ‘92 in 357 mag. I have a 1873 Uberti in 45 colt. I have...

Thanks for the tip. Close to home.

Isn't that a rather stout load?
I love to load and shoot the 44-40, but haven't tried over 8.2'unique behind 220 rdn. In my Uberti Henry. Glad to see such a pretty gun in a great caliber.
Thanks!

I never had that trouble.
As to the 45 Colt or the 44-40, I believe the cylinder and frame is slightly longer than an original to allow the 45 Colt, but I would have been fine with a 44-40. In my...

[QUOTE=Tackleberry41;3205628]So they make one model of gun and just use different chambering, vs making a smaller scale 38 spcl.

They have at least two models of top breaks, at least two...

135892135893135894I have an 1878 model of the Smith and Wesson New model three in a 45 Colt. It was a short run from Uberti with the Beretta name on it. It's also called the Laramie. It shoots much...

Nice to see more good information on this effort. I however, have failed to follow through on my end yet. The grandkids have kept me busy. Maybe I can take some of this info and get some shots out...

I'll take the Marlin.....Oh boy will that be a dandy. I like the '94 Cowboy and I like 44-40. How sweet is that?

I bought a NEA. 243 Win. for my grandson. He used it for a couple years and then he had to have a box mag. bolt action.

Now I hunted with a Model 70 all my life and it's a good choice, but the...

It sure would be nice of you to buy one of each, then tell us what you think.

The end of this story should be drying meat and wearing skins.

It's nice to have the same bullets for both.

Tough year for us. No deer. We only saw one, and as luck would have it, it was between my son and I on a trail with no shot after it stepped off. The four of us spent lots of hours waiting in stands...

Lots of snow today. I need to deal with plowing and a little work. I walked my 1873 last night as the snow was coming down. I never saw one, but I was close, as one walked in my tracks I made a few...

I live in Duluth, but have Grandpa's old homestead west of Moose Lake. Just a hunting cabin in the woods. No other hunters for a mile, just my 37 year old son, 13 year old grandson and a new hunter a...

I took a picture. I only shot it for three shots, quite accurate. I can't wait until I can buy ammo. again.

The fish should have been shot from the top. LOL.

Of course I paid too much , but I really liked it. Paid $399 very nice condition.

119868As in my avatar, Uberti, Henry, 44-40. Excellent! I also have a 1873 in a 45 colt. The 44-40 shoots the best.

Owen

Nice. Keep us posted.

Owen

Nice job! Nice gun to take home too. Congratulations.

Just an update; I have been shooting the RB with light BP loads a lot. It sure is easy to clean. I did get some 458 round balls and some Cream of Wheat. I shoot both 300 gr. rnfp. out of my new mold...

Wow is that nice!
