My Uberti 1858
« on: August 26, 2014, 10:54:20 PM »
Hey fellers. I got my Uberti '58 a little bit before my '60 this year, and never really posted any pics of her. I've ran approximately 300 shots through 'er, and she's still goin' strong. Definitely one of my favorite .44's of all time!

The Uberti is the only repro that has the nice gentle slope from the frame to the barrel. Most of the other makes have a bit of a step down to the barrel from the top of the frame. Take a look at an original and you'll see how the Uberti matches it. I have Ubertis and Euroarms Remingtons. I used to have Piettas but they were heavy & klunky to me. The Euroarms are the lightest, smallest gripped  Remmies out there with the Ubertis next in size.

Gitcher self a LEE double cavity 200gr conical mold and cast up a bunch of "thumpers". 30grs of FFFg under a conical gives a nice BOOM and whallup.
