    Pistol/revolver of choice...........

    I would go with my Starr DA. I could get more shots off in the DA mode. Contrary to some posts about the Starr, mine is reliable and accurate.

    pietta 1858 starr double action

    I am thinking of getting a starr double action. I have read the reviews of the starr single action. I believe the problems with the single action was that the hammer needs some adjustment to hit the percussion cap properly. Anyone have experience with the double action? It might be fun to see...

    Dishwasher cleaning??? and volume V weight newbie questions

    just don't let the clean all be all. Some of the stuff needs a wipe. Water alone is not enough. but that is just my opinion.

    Great Plains Max load?

    My 100 yard target load I found to be most accurate is 80-90 grs of 2f. I haven't tried 3f yet but plan to later this year. I agree with Paul on the 50 yard plinking load range also. I don't like to waste powder, too costly.

    Pedersoli Kentucky

    I have the kentucy in 54 cal flintlock version. I use patched round balls. I have never tried using a conical. The only thing to be careful of is not to shoot too hot a load. You can spit the stock if you shoot hot loads on these style of pistols. My max load is 30grs of 3f.

    kentucky windadge on colt revolvers

    Otherwise I am getting good groups, around 2 inch groups at 25 yards. I believe I can better this as I work on the load variables.

    kentucky windadge on colt revolvers

    How is the front site (brass bead) attached? Where are higher sights available? How do you attach them? the colt navy is a brass bead not like the 60 army.

    kentucky windadge on colt revolvers

    My 51 navy colt "c series" 2nd gen revolver shoots 16 inches high at 25 yards. How do you hold that low for target shooting? I am thinking of getting a remington dovetail sight from DGW and having a gunsmith replace the bead sight. Any thoughts on the pros/cons?
