I like them both. but if you went on looks it would be the 1860.
It shouldn't be "vs" in the title. It needs to be "which one first?".
because when you learn the trick to loading and lube you can get into the 100s of shotsMy first exposure to black powder was in the early 1970s with Remington New Army revolvers, both original and reproduction. The experience was so bad that I swore off of black power for forty years. How could anyone enjoy a gun when the cylinder binds up after 12 to 18 rounds? Thanks to a Cabela’s sale I was tempted to purchase a Colt 1860 repo and I am enjoying black powder at last. I simply do not understand shooter’s attraction to Remingtons. Colt Rules!
