    Uberti (Cimmaron) revolver repair

    They're quite easy to work on. The one with the cylinder lock up issue probably just need a hammer/bolt spring. With some more detailed info on the other one, we could probably help you figure that out. 35W

    New Model Ruger Black Hawk

    Yes, you have to stop when the chamber is aligned with the slot. If you go too far, you can't go back. Another small attention to detail that Ruger has overlooked. Now that I think about it, that's the case with my large frame Blackhawk, but I don't remember having to do that with either of.my...

    Considering this S&W Model 10

    Good grief...it's a tool, not a play-pretty. If you want it, buy it, clean it, use it. I went through a Model 10 craze recently and have had I guess a half-dozen of them plus a Model 15. If you're interested in a Model 10, I personally would forego the heavy barrel, I don't think there's...

    45 Colt Loads and Position Sensitivity

    I guess I don't understand this. I've lost count of the times I've pulled a revolver out of a holster, raised it to level and shot something without a loss in velocity. 35W

    .41 Mag Association

    I've used DougGuy (Cylindersmith on Facebook) and Fermin Garza. Fermin is a Texas boy, so he gets first shot! https://fermincgarza.com/ 35W

    .41 Mag Association

    Just got into the bidniss, Charlie! I have a 4 5/8" on the way too. I found those Speer bullets on another forum. A bullet mold will be here by the end of the week. As soon as the other Blackhawk arrives both cylinders will be sent off for reaming. 35W

    .41 Mag Association

    Not sure what you're asking, but bullets are usually .410 with some commercial cars bullets sized .411. The groove diameter of my revolver is .4095", two adjacent cylinders .4105" with the other four a bit smaller, hence they're the problem children! 35W

    .41 Mag Association

    Brand new to the .41 Magnum here with a very gently used 6-1/2" Blackhawk. I ran about 100 rounds through it last weekend about 1/2 chronographing, 1/2 shooting at targets. I bought a box of MBC Outlaws and have pretty much limited them to <1150 fps with 700-X and W231. It's fairly accurate but...

    45 Colt Loads and Position Sensitivity

    Um, no. The 45 Auto Rim was designed for use in S&W 1917 45 ACP revolvers. The AR cartridge eliminates the need for ACP cases and moon clips. I have a 1917 and AR rounds are far easier to use than ACP rounds and moon clips. (One can fire ACP cartridges without moon clips, but most of the time...

    New Model Ruger Black Hawk

    You can get 800-1000 with a 250 gr. bullet and stay within SAAMI's 14k psi recommendation. 35W

    Anyone Ordered from Missouri Bullet Company Lately?

    Much to my joy, look what arrived today! After a quick disassembly to deal with the atrocious trigger pull, I'll be loading some shells and shooting it. But that's for another thread. You may totter on along now, fella. I'm sure there's a bingo game in the activity room just waiting for...

    Anyone Ordered from Missouri Bullet Company Lately?

    It was sort of a rhetorical question partially intended to initiate a conversation amongst other handloaders. You're not required to participate. 35W

    Anyone Ordered from Missouri Bullet Company Lately?

    I don't mind that so much when there's a reasonable wait, but being billed with no movement for two or more weeks, not so much. 35W

    Anyone Ordered from Missouri Bullet Company Lately?

    No, if I had, then that would've been in my original post. I'm not particularly interested in why they're so slow, only why their distributor can fulfill an order MUCH faster than they can. 35W

    Anyone Ordered from Missouri Bullet Company Lately?

    I placed an order for some bullets for my .41 Magnum, got the confirmation email, card charged, etc., but after 14 days, nothing. So I turned around and ordered the same bullets from Graf's, paid a little more, but 2 days later the bullets arrived. So I canceled my order with MBC. Wonder why...

    New Model Ruger Black Hawk

    Have you checked to make sure your problem isn't with the chronograph? I realize some guns are "slower" than others, but having owned and chronographed at least a half dozen 45 Colt's, yours just seems an extreme example. 35W
