I know the difference is there, but I do not notice it when handling or especially when shooting the two together, nor do my holsters.  Perhaps that means I'm unsophisticated.   :)

 A Uberti is dimensionally very close to a Ruger New Vaquero, both of which have slightly larger frames, cylinders and cylinder walls, which in turn is why the Ruger and Uberti's easily handle heavier loads than Colt's.
