Cabelas (pietta) 1851 Confederate Navy 44?
I have been looking at this C&B revolver for quite a while, and it is currently on sale. I am seriously considering spending the money on it ($120), and I was wondering what opinions anybody on HC had. It seems to have good reviews all around, although most people are talking about loading it with 25-30 grains of powder, and Pietta recommends 15 grains as the max (I will be going with the companies max loads until I am sure anything else is safe) load. This confuses me a weee bit since I would not have thought there would be that much variation in it. And most powder flasks I find drop 20-30 grains for it so I don't know what I am going to do about a flask.
Right now I will probably just pick up the revolver (Without a starter kit) to have to handle, fondle, and have around and pickup the rest of the kit when the weather warms up around here. GoodOlBoy
