Me and the girlfriend went out with the Uberti '61 for a little fun. There was no smokeless today, I only wanted to clean one gun :D

Cool! I only have one BP revolver, and you couldn't hit that berm with it. Most disappointing gun I've ever owned.

I'd watch out with her bud, she seems to be a better shot with it than you are.. :D
Just kidding, that's pretty sweet man, glad that you two can go out & have some fun like that.

Very nice thanks for sharing.
My wife used to shoot with me years ago, has indicated a desire to do so again, looking forward to it, looks like you both had a ball (pun intended)

Thanks for the compliments! she does enjoy going shooting with me on a regular basis, which is great. She's also one heck of a shot, and she will outshoot me with some guns.
We are in Pigeon Hill, which is a missouri public range in the south part of St. Joseph.

You're both great shots! :)
Did you do anything with the sights or are they still as they were out of the box?

Nope, the sights are untouched, and they hit POA with 17.5 grains of 777 fffg. I couldn't ask for more...

That was great. The slow motion was very good. But you better watch her. My wife shoots with me at a club. She shoots in the woman's and is in the top 20%. Very seldom does she go to range, just to practice. But I go when every I get a chance. And she out shoots me sometimes,too.
Keep up the good work. Loved watching the 36 go through its paces. The cap going off, the ball exiting the gun and the flame. And of course the exploding of the water bottle. I would have to use a gallon bottle.

they hit POA with 17.5 grains of 777 fffg.
At 17.5 grains per shot, that works out to 400 shots per pound of 777.
And at $27 per pound, the powder only costs 6.7 cents per shot.
That illustrates how economical and efficient the .36 caliber is, and the 777 powder really shot great in the video. :)

Been to Pidgon Hill lots of times. Good place to shoot.

I wondered if that was BP or a sub since there wasn't much flame. I'll have to say, you've really got that little gun dialed in perfectly. That was some nice shooting and your squeeze really does seem to be a better shot.
