Bigger balls work better...in my Walker

[paulmarcone]

Got back to the range today with my Uberti Colt Walker. I tried out bigger balls this time -- .457 Hornady round balls. I had been using .454 and they were not shaving as much lead as I'd like.

Below is my target shot from 25 yards. All shots were made standing using a two-handed grip. I used 45 grains of Goex FFFG, wonder wad and the .457 balls. This group was a lot tighter than what I was getting with the .454s. So, I am going to use the .457s.

I checked my supply of balls for my Walkers and I use the .457s too. Once you get used to the sights on these beauties it's amazing what they'll do! :thumbsup:
