    Reloading for conversion cylinders

    8 grains of Unique under a 250 grain bullet is too hot to be considered 'Cowboy' ammo. It's over 14000 PSI. These conversions should be kept under/at 10000 PSI. With a lighter bullet, say 200 grains or so, it is OK.

    I want a pocket Colt clone

    You are right, it is no surprise it likes Remington # 10s. All my C&B revolvers do. I get my Rem. # 10s at Powder Valley. Buy 1000 and pay the hazmat fee and you will be set for a long time.

    Double build: .44 Remington and .22 Remmy conversion

    Levi, I am just curious as to what size lathe you have. I have only a Micro lathe, so I am limited as to what I can turn. :confused: BTW, nice work so far! :D

    Cabelas Fathers day sale. Pietta 1860 $179.00

    Yes, you are confused. As was said above, you need to do more research, so you know of what you speak. :uhoh: It's the caliber that determines if the revolver in question is an Army or Navy, not the roll engraving on the cylinder. .44 was the Army caliber and .36 was the Navy caliber.

    Getting back into BP revolvers....

    Well start to understand this. There is steel and then there is steel. All pistol frames are not made from the same grade of steel nor are they hardened to the same degree.

    Sacrilegious to shorten a Ruger Old Army?

    Absolutely no sin involved. It's your gun. Fix it up anyway you want to, and enjoy it.

    Getting back into BP revolvers....

    Cowboy loads are the recommended loads for a steel framed/conversion revolver. Conversion cylinders are NOT recommended for brass framed revolvers.

    The RUGER OLD ARMY Club

    The Colt type is 1860 ARMY. The Remington type is 1858 NEW ARMY. It is unclear which one you are referring to.
