Checking the usual suspects and I cannot seem to find an Uberti in stock. Was hoping someone here might have one they would part with for a decent price.

Don't know if it's a decent price, but Dixie has them in stock for $1600.

There is one for a couple hundred less at Kevin's in Tallahassee (like 1350.00).  He has had it there awhile, I would make an offer to them, they may be willing to move it.  I live there so if you need any help let me know.

Thanks, Mean Bob! I think I have found one...should have it by the end of next week, if things all work out.

Congrats!  If you hate it, send it to me.

Best of luck with her, happy shooting mate.

I bought a Uberti 76 in 50-95 about a year and a half ago.  Only had it out to the range twice so far.
It's beautiful.
While I got some ogles at the range I had a hard time hitting a 17" target at 50 yards with BA 300gr smokeless rounds.
I don't reload some I have to go with BA.
I have some 350gr rounds but haven't tried them yet.
Full disclosure:  I'm a total noob compared to so many  on this forum.  That's why I'm here - to learn.

I thought I was wrong once, but I was mistaken.

Well, the .50-95 is not known to be a tack driver, but it certainly can do better than 17" at 50 yards.  Here is an example from my rifle.

I'll try the 350gr BA rounds next time.
Fortunately I didn't buy it to be my best shooting rifle.
If all I ever do in the future is pull it out occasionally to stare at it with a smile on my face it was still worth the money.  :)
