Well done Driftwood!  Your photos are fine and the glare only enhances their glossy finish and fine condition.

Beautiful gun.
My russian is a new repro S&W #3 NMR. I load 18gr. FFG by volume in front of 200gr. RNFPs. Much bang and smoke.
'Shoot the same loads from an Uberti Open Top.  In the NMR, The lyman bullets I cast group OK, but not great.  I've only gotten really good groups out of the MAV Dutchman.  'Waiting to get $$ to buy that mold.

If that BP tycoon Dick Dastardly would only lower his prices. Rumor has it he winters in Rio de Janeiro on profits from the Big Lube moulds!!  :D ;)

Pretty Pictures. Sorry for all the glare, shiny things are tough for me to photograph in the basement.



What a beauty! Worth a second look. Be nice to shoot one like that with no binding of the cylinder. Reason I sold my Uberti Schofield a few years ago was the binding with black powder. Couldn't stand to shoot the new heathen powder in it.
