Just got my stainless 1858 Army model. I love it!!! plus 2 extra cylinders.
It is much easier to clean than my navy
The manual kinda sucks. It lists the loads as 12-15 grains.
What loads do you guys use. I used 35 gr of fffg.
Is there some type of device available for loading the cylinders outside of the gun, like a press? I was thinking of making one but wanted to see if one is available. What is the best powder measure you guys recommend? Right now I have a 357 shell cut to length soldered to a coat hanger to use as a scoop.
It is not obvious to me how to adjust the elevation (it has adjustable sights). Windage was not a problem.
