Well I got her out today and much to my surprise she put all the balls nearly touching at 7 yards with a chamber full of 3f old eynsford and a .323 ball
The only problem I had was using the slix hand created too much torque and bent the hole the screw gos through that holds the rammer to the frame
Well I reached out to Pietta and sent them a picture of the sku# on the box explained this happened on my first time using it, and they are shipping me a new loading lever.
God knows I love Pietta
I've never had Uberti even answer a email.
I love Ubertis because of their finish and their faster twist rate which I feel is needed in the .36 revolvers and smaller.
.44 the twist rate doesn't seem to matter as much
Wow, that's the tallest I've seen to get POI=POA!! Great small game/survival pistol. Shots touching at seven yards should still give you a nice cluster at 15 yards, which is the range I see or shoot small game at.
That's how tall I had to go on my 1862 to get it sighted for small game. 20 grains of 4fg and a ball shoots to the same POA, although not quite as tight as that group.
I am a "Uberti Man", but I picked this up in a trade recently. It shoots to POA with the sight that's on it. Perhaps a hair to the right, which is okay with me as far as .44's go. My load for that pistol is now a 207 grain slug over 34 grains of 4fg. That's enough punch to keep the wolves, cougars, or the boogie man at bay. Probably a bit rough on small game.
