1871 OT
« on: March 01, 2008, 02:22:15 PM »
Got my first OT today.  I just walked into my favorite gun shop and looked up on the wall and there it was.  I'll shoot it tomorrow.  Glad I had my taxes done early.   ;D

Yes, a 7.5 inch barrel.  Gonna shoot it tomorrow.  Any problems shooting smokeless with it?  I have 200 and 160 grain cartiridges from Great Basin Cartridge Co. 

The gun shop had just gotten the OT in two days ago.  Talk about timing.

Those cartridges should work just fine.  Great Basin makes great cartridges for CAS shooters.  I have some of the BP cartridges in 44-40 around here somewhere.
