1858 Remington Buffalos

[Blackpowdershooter44]

Those of you who have Remington '1858 Buffalo' revolvers with brass frame, how has the brass frame held up for you? What kind of charges have you been shooting through it?
Thanks!

BTW, the buffalo's are on sale right now via Cabela's online. $199 I think.

That's why I'm asking, seems too good to pass up

If loads are kept modest a brasser will last a long time. I used one for years, shooting in monthly matches. It's been a while now but I believe I used 20 grains of 2f or 3f black.

I have two Buffs and use 15-20 gr. I also have a detachable stock that steadies my aim.
