I am 70 and decided to go into black powder shooting. I have a 1851 navy colt .36 (pieta) and an 1858 remington .44 (also pieta). Love going to range and shooting. Working my way up from 7 yards to 15 yards. Soon I'll try 25 yards. Hitting target in 12 inch circle. Been shooting for 4 months. Would like to get another BP and looking at either a Walker or a Pocket.
