I've done my best to research the Uberti 1873 chambered in .357 Magnum in regards to strength. I've read posts on leverguns.com, SASSnet, firingline and also on this forum.
Some have said that it is just fine to shoot "factory" .357 Magnum ammo through the Uberti 1873.
Other say that it will crap out in no time if you shoot alot of .357 Magnum ammo in it.
Can anyone give me some first hand experience on this? If you've had one of these and have shot alot of .357 Magnum through it or if you have anything you'd like to add.
PS. I'm not looking for recommendations on other leverguns in .357 Magnum I'm well aware of the Marlin and other options available.
