I just got an 1873 Cattleman .44 with a 4 3/4 bbl. The gun was made in 04 according to the proof mark BU. Since I haven't bought a black powder revolver since the mid 80's, except for a 58 Remington repo I was supprised at the quality and fit, but I do have some gripes! First, the nipples are of variable height; which causes some of the caps to rub and stop the cylinder from turning. There is a ridge that is catching the high caps coming into battery. How would you suggest I fixx this problem? Thanks
