Sorry to hear that. Any chance you can send it back to Uberti for a bbl replacement? Is it worth relining the bbl? You really need to send your rifle to DustyTexan to upgrade to a .50 cal. He does real pretty work. I'll dig my NWMP carbine out of the safe today and measure the bbl innards to see if I've got the same problems.
Years ago, at the NE Regional in Md, I bought a like new used Uberti Cimarron 1873 with a 30 inch bbl that had a totally bad from the factory barrel. After some haggling (they claimed that the rifle wasn't theirs but their name was stamped on the bbl??) I shipped the rifle to them in Fredricksburg, Texas where it languished for a year waiting for another 30 inch bbl. Eventually the bbl was replaced and it shoots ok now. If I shot it more I'd invest in a nicer tang sight and spirit level front sight.
As near as I can measure with my calipers, at the muzzle, the lands to grooves dif is .006, I measured the thickness of the bbl at the lands and in the grooves.
