    I have to rethink the spare cylinder idea

    I don't have that particular issue with mine swapping cylinders doesn't move the poa at all. Changing the factory nipples to Slixxshots took it from a tack driver to not hitting anything. Swapped over to tow stainless and back to tack driving.

    Seeking Opinions on a Recent Kibler SMR Purchase Experience

    Who was it? I ask because I am in the market and don't want to deal with them.

    Personally I would have had as many of both I could afford or carry.

    Maximum loads for 1858 Remington

    I had issues with the lee .45 conicals backing out under recoil and jamming the cylinder. Also were a pita to seat straight the Kerr from Erasgone loads easily,straight and stays in during discharge. I still prefer roundball for most things.

    The tow stainless nipples work better than the hotshots for me.

    Anyone use a chest / shoulder type holster for a Remington NMA?

    I Ordered one for a target model 1858 and it came in this morning. Pretty well made and comfortable with a lot of room for adjustment. The hammer strap is pretty worthless but you'd have to take a hard fall upside down to dislodge the pistol without it. Much cheaper at Midway than triple k for...

    Where to find real 32 Caliber soft lead Ball for the tiny BP Revolvers

    I find .33 to be the best for the Uberti 1849. I cast 00 buck from a lee mold for roundballs and use the eras gone conical for conicals which is my preferred round on 15 grains of pyrodex or t7. The most frustrating and hardest pistol to get running reliably in my collection. Doubled mainsprings...

    T They are good for one strike on the second they cut a plug as well. Doubled aluminum is good for multiple strikes.

    I tried using leather and it was cutting a plug and clogging the nipples. Went with uncharged tap caps and they work great. You can really see exactly how hard and how flush the hammer strike is works on rifles as well.

    More Misfire Issues - Investarms 54 Caliber

    Why is that? I assumed it was there and called a cleanout for a reason and have been using it as such each time I clean the gun. Haven't had any issues and it was definitely screwed in too far when I got the gun the nipple wouldn't even sit flush.

    The cleanout screw will block the nipple if it is screwed in first on my investarms. Pull it screw the nipple in first then the cleanout last.

    Another option for caps.

    I use acetone and duco cement for a binder and no issues. Look like this after firing in the 1849 with zero jams.

    Another option for caps.

    They work exceptionally well for me.
