Two-Bit Charlie Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 I'm looking for balls for my Uberti 1849 Pocket Pistol. I'm looking for .320"to .323" balls. It seems the only ones carried by most venders are from Hornady, and they are either .310" or .315". What do I need and where do I get them?

J-BAR #18287 Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 The buckshot solution works fine if you charge the chambers with the cylinder out of the gun. Remember that buckshot is much harder than pure lead, and may be impossible to seat with the short rammer on the gun. If attempting to load with the cylinder in the gun, use only pure lead balls.

J-BAR #18287 Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 ...and 4/0 buckshot mikes out about .380-.382”. Which makes it usable in a Navy .36. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
