I have a 1858 44 cal with target sights from Pietta (WHICH I BOUGHT FROM CABELAS!!) i love the thing. but i can't shoot the" AWESOME ONE" in the club b-cos of the smoke. so i am thinking of getting an R&D drop in conversion cylinder.
This is what i have read: that you can only use 45 long colt cowboy loads, 700 fps to 800 fps.
1. is it all BlackPowder or are there smokeless loads that are for sale?
2. can i use cci pest control shot shells in 45 long colt that are 150g at 1000 fps?
3. can it be used for home defense and is there a recommended load for home defense that is for sale?
4. can i use it for hunting deer. what do you recommend?
now i know that there are a lot of questions but i do not want to buy something that cost more than my gun just to be very disappointed, so if you could please give me tips, thoughts on your experiences and especially answers to my questions then you would have made me and my 1858 remmie very happy, thanks for all your help.
