Went to range today for the first time with my 1873 Uberti Smokewagon in 44-40. I bought all the stuff to load with it from Starline brass,RCBS cowboy dies and a RCBS 44-200 cowboy bullet that I ended up powder coating. This round is brand new to me but it is such a pleasure to shoot with 7.5 grains of Unique. I love this old cartridge! Since it doesnt have rear sights it took a little to get used to because i cant hardly see these days but Im pretty pleased with the accuracy at 15 yards for a starting load. Im sure this old gal will be a constant range companion.
