I have a Ruger Old Army and a bunch of 45 colt brass and a Dillon conversion with dies for my 550B press. Who make the best conversion cylinder and where is a good place to order from? Or, I could just go out and buy a new revolver?

Flintlocks Rock!
I have the Kirst .45 ACP conversion for my Ruger Old Army, which also works with .455 Colt and Eley, which I like it alot. They also have one which uses .45 Colt or Schofield.

The ENEMY is listening.
HE wants to know what YOU know.
Keep it to yourself.
Probably be better off with a new revolver! And what better excuse not to go out and buy one!
Although the Kirst cylinder does look really good!
Got a .22 .30 .32 .357 .38 .40 .41 .44 .45 .480 or .500 S&W cylinder that needs throats honed? 9mm, 10mm/40S&W, 45 ACP pistol barrel that won't "plunk" your handloads? 480 Ruger or 475 Linebaugh cylinder that needs the "step" reamed to 6° 30min chamfer?
