Saw this at the range once. A guy shooting a .300 Weatherby couldn't figure out why his groups were so bad until the rangemaster showed him a piece of brass that came out of his gun. He was shooting .300 Win Mag ammo in his .300 Weatherby Mag rifle. The guy said he just went to the gun shop...

Nice pickup!

I would like the code as well, please. I use the hardcast "Keith-style" for my .44 special and plan to use the same when I get my .44 magnum. Thank you in advance.

FYI Ruger is planning to open another factory to help meet demand http://www.nhbr.com/May-3-2013/Ruger-looks-to-open-a-third-gun-plant-but-not-in-NH/ BTW I ordered a .44 special Blackhawk last month and got it two weeks ago. Looks great and shoots like a dream :D

Looks great! Congrats.

It's definately a score! Stainless AND fluted AND a great price? Wait. . . you have two stainless 1860's? Nice.

When I first started thinking about buying cap and ball revolvers, I wasn't interested in the ROA either. A kind and generous friend brought out a half-dozen Italian replicas for me to try out, as well as his ROA. After I shot his ROA I knew I had to have one. :)

So it's a blued model? Congrats! Aren't you glad you decided to shoot it?

You don't even have to be shooting it to attract attention. The way my favorite outdoor range is set up, you load the c&b revolver on the back bench (well, everything except the percussion cap) and then move to the front bench to cap the gun and shoot it. As you guys know, you spend more time...

Oh, sweet! For some reason, they only made the bi-centennial model for one year ;) Anyways, I took my Old Army out for another range trip and caught the attention of a nice family (father, mother, son, and daughter) so I gave them a quick lesson on cap and ball revolvers and they all got to...

Here's my blued Ruger Old Army with 7.5" barrel and adjustable sights. I think it was made in 1982 based on the serial number and I picked it up late last year. Previous owner(s) mostly took good care of it, except they put a few dings in the frame apparently trying to unscrew the latch that...

Yes, Bill was a traitor. But he's not alive anymore so it's kinda hard to do him any harm. As for the company, if this is their way of trying to make amends, I think it's a good start. I try to always give people and companies the opportunity to make amends.

Russian VEPR and Romanian PSL but those are semi-auto if that matters to you.

According to their website, Uberti's Dragoon weights 4.1 lbs and their Walker weights 4.5 lbs. All I know is the Walker is a beast.

First BP revolver I ever shot was a replica Walker and you can't help but notice the enormous size and balance (or lack thereof). I would definately have trouble shooting one in each hand! Thanks for the video :D
