Looks good.  You did a nice job.  Now you need to go out and shoot it.

Very nice!  And I like the way you have that "attack mosquito" posted near it in case anyone decides to steal it!

Thanks for the compliments, guys.  Anyways, I sort of got to the range to shoot it this morning.  After I got there, and got it loaded, one of the gun club officers came out to tell me that he was about to shut down the shooting range for the long-range rifle shoot that was starting in an hour.  So, I got to shoot off my six shots.  I managed a 3-shot one inch group at 25 yards.  It actually shot to point of aim at 25 yards with a load of a .44 magnum case filled with Goex FFF pushing a homemade wad and a .457" RB.  And, the loading lever did not drop even once.  So, with some load development, this could be a real good shooter!

Sounds great.  Too bad that you only got to unload one cylinder full.  Looks like you'll be having lots of fun with your Walker!!

The sound of a Walker is definitely distinctive!

Resist the temptation to heavily load the gun. The easiest way to avoid overloading is to use FFg. I managed to shoot both my Walkers loose during a single match using 50 grs FFFg and a .454 ball. Fortunately the only damage done was to the wedges which got crushed. Two new wedges later and one lesson learned and I was back to square A. My current load is : 44grs FFg+lube wad+.454 ball+ grease+#10 Remington cap. It's a 44-44. It gives a nice soft BOOM!.
