My "Schofield" is marked 'Stoeger-Uberti' and is in .45 Colt. It is a sweet shooter!

I could not believe it, when it showed up at the William's Gun Sight Store, 'hardly used' and priced very reasonable. (I guess a Cowboy Action Shooter really wanted a Ruger "Vaquero" and traded-in the Schofield)!

The Uberti has a lengthened cylinder and accepts regular .45 Colt ammo. But, I like to use shorter ".45 Cowboy Special" cases, that reload with my .45ACP Carbide Dies and a .45 Colt shell-holder.

I use 5.3 grains of WW-231 and 200 grain swaged Semi-Wad Cutters. Accurate & pleasant target load, shoots close to point of aim, and easy to clean - Easy Peasy!

I am also growing fond of that, short barreled, "Cimarron SAA". It is 'new-used', but, came with an Antique Finish. It is one smooth operating SAA and looks like it got dragged all over the Philippines. It looks good with a Krag carbine!
