Add me to the roster. Got my 1876 from Taylor Arms a few weeks ago. Beautiful looking rifle.
Got it in 45-60 with a 28 inch barrel. Haven't got to shoot it yet. looking for ammo and Components.
03/04/08: finally got the shoot the 45-60, boy is it nice. Still need to shoot it a lot more to smooth up the action.
this a great handling and shooting rifle. Will hopefully get to shoot it off a rest and get a few pictures up here of it and groups.

Please sign me up as a member. I own an original RCMP and an original Holland & Holland marked and worked on 50-95. Unfortunately I haven't fired either one - to darn valuable - but I'm saving for a replica.

Count me in.

I have had a Uberti 1876 in 45-60 for about 18 months now. It's a lot of fun to shoot and very accurate too.

Please sign me up. I'm having a grand time reading all of these '76 Posts.

Dirty Brass · « **Reply #52 on:** March 21, 2008, 11:30:37 AM »

I gotta tell something here. When I was a lad in early high school (yup - mid-60's...no...not 1860's) My grandad had an original '76 hanging in the sportsmans bar he had, and I thought that was the coolest thing ever. It was a 45/75, and everyone pretty much talked about how sad it was no ammo was available - it might be fun to shoot. It weighed a ton! ( as I remember it back then) I have no idea where it is now, 40 years later.

Now, I have a couple of these Uberti's, and to be honest, even without shooting them (which isn't happening), I'd still never part with 'em. Beautiful guns and a part of history every little kid would love to have at some point in life! I hope you all enjoy them as much as I do!

Please add me to your list. I Am the proud owner of a Uberti 76 in 45-60.

I picked up a Uberti 45-60 on 22 MAR 08 just because I picked it up and fell in love with it. I've never been to a cowboy shoot or even know if there's a place for an 1876 to compete, but I'll worry about that later. I spent the weekend cutting down 45-70 brass and my dies come in today. Can I still join and dip into the "info barrel" here? After looking over what data I can find, it appears the first thing I'll have to do is find a readily available cast bullet that will meet COAL requirements. If anyone has any recommendations, I'm all ears. I think I'd eventually like to try some black powder shooting but to be honest, I like shooting a lot better than I like cleaning.

Grizzly Adams Hi.

I have just pick mine up,its made by Uberti in 45-60 there are a few getting around down here now and we all are busy trimming back 45-70 cases. Our local case maker Bruce Bertram from Bertram Brass told me yesterday he should have 45-60 cases made in a couple of weeks as he has a large order for the US.

Looking forward to taking mine out to the range a putting a few rounds through it.
