Here are the first rounds that I put through a new to me, unfired El Patron in 357 Magnum. The loadings are what I use in my Win 1873. I have had very good groups with it. The Uberti is the first wheel-gun I have shot in 20 years and I am very impressed with the function and fit. My errors are obvious, otherwise I think it would shoot much tighter. I used a basic cup and saucer, standing hold. I modified the mainspring function by using a synthetic o-ring under the mainspring and tightened to allow firing pin strikes that are hard enough and still give a lighten trigger pull. I have new springs coming anyway but had to experiment. I love this gun, its going to get much use. Its balance is good in the hand and it points well. Muzzle jump was almost not noticeable and pressure signs were non existent. The distance between forcing cone and cylinder was .0035 inches. Nice and tight. It locked up nice and tight also and the timing was perfect. It loves epoxy coated bullets and that makes it affordable to shoot and the cleanup time is reduced as the fouling is minimal. I'm going to stop blathering now and reload more ammo.
...I'd be happy with those groups and I often shoot revolvers a couple of times a month.
