I have a uberti 1873 carbine 357 love it great video tks for sharing . Love the soundtrack what is it is it from one of my favourite tv series lonesome dove. Subbed

Have the 73 in 44 mag. Love it

In my Uberti 1851 with the Krist conversion I am having good luck at 20 yards with the Bear Creek HBWC bullet and FFFg Gunpowder (about 10 grain volume) to the bullet base seated with about /1/6" of lead showing. This it through a .375" bore so it can also be shot as a C&B revolver..

WOW !!!!

Awesome

I love my Howell .45 Colt drop in conversion cylinder that I use with my Uberti 1858 new model army revolver. I go to a spot right off the road also which you can see in the video I have up of me taking out a flower pot with some .45 Colt cowboy loads using my piece

Great video. I get that music paints a picture. Man, that was almost painful.😂 I have one of those 1886 45-70s. They can really reach out there. I've sort of settled in on either the 360 or 405 hard cast bullets. My local range goes out to 250 meters and that 86 really has no trouble hitting targets out there.

Use the hollow base bullet, the plastic grips feel like a kid cap gun, I know i have that pietta.

Awesome

Try very soft trigger pull, you might be pulling it to the right with hard trigger pull . If still hitting slight right, file the left notch of the hammer ( slightly) redirect, file again if necessary

Deadly toy, give it some respect! Replica firearm! lol. Love the background music!

I handled one of these revolvers and it seems beefy enough to whitstand 357 Magnum loads with the chambers reamed to accept that caliber.

Looks like it could give you an oweee if you aren’t careful, looks like a lot of fun.

were can I find scope base's for it. I have a 1891.

Awesome

That thing has some punch, eh? Nice lookin' rifles.

Shooting through tall grass??

Thank you for sharing your Turkey hunt. Great stuff.

In Colorado shooting, even target practice, within 50' of the center of the outside lane of any state or county road would get to a hefty ticket! We live in such a nanny state! Neat conversion!

Just love the look and feel of these. One of my favorite guns. Nice video!

You're pointing a loaded gun at your friend!!!! Very dangerous . Be careful

Another comment. If you set the bottom of a pistol grip on the rest when you are shooting off the bench you will lower the point of impact.

What powder are you using in your .38 spl Cowboy loads?

Awesome

Wrong hole....snicker. Nice firearms!

You talked about the cylinder being short. I just got blessed yesterday with a Remington new navy 1858. It has a conversion cylinder for 38 special. The scary thing is that a 357 magnum round will fit in it. I'm sure if that's ever done, it'll be a one time accident.

👍

Looks like a good time despite the snow and cold.

OK to start. I've am in the middle of a thought experiment on my two Remington new model Navy's. A peitta and a uberti. I slugged both barrels, for very different results. The peitta slugs at .3665, and the uberti at .3710. So I've custom order a bullet mold for heal based bullets. Heal at .358, and drive bands at .372. Two bullets one at 130gr, the other 150gr. I'm also curious what the Howells cylinder you have measures front to back without the firing pin cap. On my Remingtons they measure 1.62 which if longer than 357 mag cartridge overall length. I have a couple of videos on this subject, and going through the process. Mountain man

Ahhhh… you need to get some 38 long colt brass and load 38lc. Shorter than 38spcl.

Too cold for me to want to go out shooting!

The bore of you 1851 Navy is .36 cal with a groove diameter closer to .37. Using ,357 bullets they will not engage the rifling resulting in tumbling/keyholing and leading. Your 1872 open top is a true .357 groove/.38 special bore/chamber and should shoot .38 special fine. To improve accuracy with the 1851 Navy/Howell conversion cylinder load your cartridges with 148gr hollow base target wad cutters (such as from Hornady) They will expand and engage the rifling grooves and should be more accurate. In the day .38 Colt cartridges used healed externally lubricated bullets (like current.22 LR) So the exposed bullet was .36 and worked well, later they went to modern .358 inside lubricated hollow base bullets which also worked. Enjoy DJ

Interesting issues with the conversion cylinders. A little workaround.

Awesome man ..we’re still out here looking for them wish us luck man ..

Great video!! Great times, always…

great hunt always the way are they pretty good to eat

That's a great song to start off with!

A bar tent....like with alcohol?? Yipppeeeee! Good hunt. How much time do you have after the kill to remove the glands or whatever that is the can make them gamey-tasting?

i recently inherited from my dad, its the exact same gun. any more info?

Awesome

Why does the wood not continue down the barrel :)

Do you realize that you must use special hollow based cast pure lead bullets to engage the rifling in the original barrel of your 1851 barrel? The .38 Special bullet is only .357" in diameter which is too undersized for any accuracy.

Ralph: Not uncommon to have to tweak the fitting of a conversion cylinder. First thing I would check is if the cylinder times correctly with the barrel off and pointing the frame/cylinder assembly up and apply minimal pressure to hold the cylinder against recoil shield then see how it cycles, turns freely on the arbor, and indexes and locks to the bolt/cylinder stop. Sometimes the hand made be slightly too long or short. for correct timing. (and can be filed down a little or stretched). Maybe, as you as suggested, the cylinder stop is a little too wide or has sharp edges to seat fully in cylinder notches and can be narrowed or tapered a little. If all is well there, then need to see if the cylinder is a little too long and may need to adjust the barrel/wedge fit so as not to be binding against the forcing cone. Always better to work on the smaller cheaper parts and have spares on hand ( hand, cylinder stop, springs, barrel wedge etc.) and not the expensive ones (frame, cylinder, hammer, barrel). Also just a suggestion: the usual 38spl bullets are too small ( .357"-.358 ") to properly engage the rifling grooves of a cap and ball barrel (about .360"+) and will be fairly inaccurate and likely keyhole. Best function is with hollow base bullets that can expand like a minne ball. Most commonly available are .38 spl 148 gr hollow base full wad cutter target (light) loads (or Hornady bullets if you reload). Smokeless loads need to be kept light as the cap and ball black powder fames and steel are proofed for black powder pressures only and should not be given stiff smokeless loads. The conversion cylinders on the other hand are proofed for lead bullet loads <850 fps. ( but unfortunately not the rest or the gun.) Certainly never +P. Personally I reload my .38spl conversions with BP. All the smoke, smell, and booming fun of BP and none of the fuss with powder, balls, and scarce caps and jams. Hope you can get both of your Navies running with the Howell cylinder. 🙂 DJ

How do you use guitar picks in the maintenance of an old style revolver? Just askin' for a friend.🤣

Wow, that looks like hell

How does the safety keep from hitting the scope? What caliber is this one? I have one identical to this, only with the original sites. I do not know what the caliber is though. Good looking rifle.

Who's doing the music?? Is it available to the public??? Great looking gun!!!

This revolver was manufactured in a neighboring city, São Leopoldo in southern Brazil, my father has had one since the 90s, in excellent condition

I have taken more deer with my 1891 than any other rifle I own.
