OK, I see the centerfire Cattleman variant on one page of their website, and a 22 rimfire variant (6 or 12 shot types) on another. My question for this august body is whether the rimfire Cattleman utilizes the same size frame and by extension the same size cylinder as its centerfire brethren. What I have already is the discontinued 32-20 version and I would like to get a second cylinder I could have reamed to 327 Fed Mag. That would be a sweet combo, don't you think? And in the image of the grand daddy of single actions, the Colt 1873! Ol' Skeeter woulda been proud! :Fire:

Froggie, rather than gather opinion here, would not this question be best directed to Uberti?

This idea came to me this evening. I'll check further with Uberti by the cold light of day. In the meanwhile, I was hoping one of this latter day Wild Bunch would have both a CF and a RF example in hand and cut out the middle man. ;)
