thanks

I inherited a bunch or reloading items and among them I found 1 box of 100 pieces of 44 mag brass, nickel plated headstamped TEXAS. Any value to these being new or should I just go ahead and load them up ? Thanks in advance

Yep, I agree with Lawdawg... If I were inthe OP's position I would first teach the wife how to shoot. Put up a silhouette target and teach her how to consistantly get a center mass group of 5-10" at 15 feet !. The comment about using 357 indoors is also a problem. The bullet from a 357 in a...

Foto Joe. Great advice. I did everything you suggested, but I did use some anti sieze on the nipple threads. Everything worked great. I was suprised however to have the loading arm come down several times during shooting? Some tape fixed that though. I may do a little gunsmithing on the latch...

Thanks for the responses

Again, I am new to Black powder shooting as far as owning one. I just bought a Uberti 3rd model Dragoon and have been preparing for a trip to the range. A few questions. Are all pistol nipple wrenches the same? I have seen nipple wrenches for the Pietta revolvers at the local Sportsmans, but...

madcratebuilder, Thanks for the info. I will probably use the 30 grain charge. Not too concerned about FPS at this point, just accuracy Thanks for the input

Nice !!!

madd trapper and foto joe. Thanks for the responses. I believe there may be a liability issue as mentioned. The Uberti manual that came with my 3rd model Dragoon is probably the same one that comes with the 1851 Navy guns etc. I dont think the Dragoon will digest the same amount of powder...

madd trapper, where did you get the data to use this amount of powder? I heard the Walkers could take 50 or more grains, but I didnt know the Dragoon could take 47??

Well, I got the 3rd model Dragoon this afternoon. $325 plus tax. Nice looking gun, feels good in the hand. I still may have to buy a Walker though. Got my eye on a Colt on Gunbrokers. I do have another question on this gun. The generic Uberti manual shows a recommended charge weight of 22...

Thanks Fingers, this is the one, but the buy it now is more than I can get it for here. I guess I did my shopping right. Thanks again

I posted the other day asking advice on which Black powder gun to buy. I failed to mention that I have shot about every model currently in production. I prefer the larger guns and have settled on the 2nd model dragoon by Uberti. Cabela's no longer carries them and the best price I have found on...

Thanks I'll look

SASS website does not show classifieds???

www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...Item=159821042 This seller has toooooo many negative feedbacks, otherwise I would. thanks

What a bunch of GREAT replies. I want to thank all of you. The Ruger would be a first choice if I could find one reasonably priced. The Dragoon seems to be on the top of my list though. However, I do like the Remington's closed frame design. Nice to hear that my friend's mention of them...

How does one tell if a Colt Walker is made by Colt? Does the inscription on the top strap "address Colt New York" (or whatever it is supposed to say) mean it is MFG by Colt or do the re makes also have this marking? Thanks

Nice collection ! The one on top is a Walker? It seems to have a support for the raming bar? Or is this a Dragoon???

Thanks for the replies. I was also considering the Remington in Stainless steel but a friend said the Remingtons were problematic? Any truth to this?
