So after I've fired about 100 rounds through it, I've determined Uberti can make a fine revolver.
That extended Birdhead grip is comfortable and looks good, but so far the heaviest loads I've fired have been the federal 225gr swchp. Very accurate with those.
I've already mentioned how smooth the action is but I'll mention it again. The action is smooth as silk and the trigger break is as close to perfect as I've personally experienced.
The missus don't like it as much as I do, though she can handle it just fine, she says it's too heavy.
I want to try it with some classic 250gr at about 850-900fps.
I've decided, however, I'm gonna have to load my own for this pistol as factory loads cost way too much and typically can't find what I want.
It's a pussycat with cowboy loads, no recoil noticed.
What I don't understand.. When I shoot the federal 225swchp
There's noticeable recoil... Shooting Winchester's 225pdx1 at similar velocity, I feel no recoil. Makes no sense(unless I've got the numbers confused), and so far, those pdx1s have not met any of my water jug setups that'll stop them to recover a bullet... They either go all the way thru or curve down rapidly and go in the ground.
Fired one into some phone books and the bullet was just a little deformed and packed with paper.
It must not be going fast enough from this short barrel to expand ?
They're not super accurate from this gun, either, but would hit the killzone on a human easily enough, though so far, I wouldn't trust them to stop in the first body...
Back to the gun, I finally got a sandisk, so I'll get some pictures of it loaded on here soon, and I'd like to say again, the action is amazingly smooth.
