Almost new will send pics if you wish. Also have about 100 rounds of black powder rounds I’ll include with several pounds of black powder. Let me know if you’d like pics.

Riverdog Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 I've got a Uberti High Wall 45-70 with a Lee Shaver Soul sight and Hadley eyecup- shoot black, got 3rd place at the Bill Williams bison shoot at Winter Range. It took a couple of hundred rounds downrange to get the barrel broken in, but now I feel it will shoot as good as the high dollar guns, the barrels are made by Pedersoli which I am told are some of the best- I made a few changes to mine , cut the metal crescent butplate off and installed a recoil pad, now I can shoot it all day and not have a sore shoulder- they are really a lot of fun- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you talk to Steve Brooks. I recommend a Paul Jones Creedmoor bullet at 540gn. You want all bands at .458 dia and the nose no more than .448 dia. Are there any ranges near you that go out past 300yds? OLG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
