I realized the irony of this purchase on the way home from the range/store today. Go to the range with a Glock 17C and a RRA CAR-15, and come back with a Glock 17C, an RRA CAR-15, and this --
I think it was a combination of watching "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly", Tales of the Gun (Colt episode, very educational) and the article in this month's American Rifleman about Beretta buying out Uberti. It's a used Uberti in 45LC, and while I looked at a nice Ruger Single Six, it wouldn't stop whispering, "Buy me, buy me." So I did.
So, anything important I need to know about the care and feeding of this hand cannon? The only other handgun I own is the aforementioned Glock, and I qualified on the M-9 in the Marines. Prior to that, the Single Six is the only handgun I'd ever fired.
The only ammo they had was some of the SASS Winchester stuff (anemic at best), so what else can I feed this thing? What's a good hard hitting reload recipe? I'm sure this will provide me with an excuse to get dies in 45LC (and probably a lever action in 45LC ).
