THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
I've been getting 5-6" groups at 25 yards w/ 0.451 ball so I decided to try some of the Hornady 0.454 ball. Worked pretty well....



That's a 3.75" 5 shot group, and a 1.875" 4-shot group. (The shot low, dead center I think was me, since the gun has always grouped "left")

Here's a pic of my setup...made the stand meself...



I've started using pre-measured charges, kept in plastic vials, in an ammo box to speed laoding out on the range (Note the funnel) I think I'll get either a powder measure for BP, or maybe some of those Lee Reloading scoops, to speed up the pre-measured charges.

And here's a "family portrait"...

Very nice set up you got there.....I started out with one Pietta New Army and now have three of them.....They are addicting!

Would love to get a nice holster rig, and another Sherriff model.
