Afy Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 And since they had an emergency when we were five miles away and had to cancel... we ended up going to a Quick for lunch.. and next to the Quick was a Tir shop. So now in addition to my pair of 1858 Remington new Army's I have a 1860 Colt Army and a 1848 Colt Walker all of which are in 44 caliber. (Makes logistics easier).And from there we drove straight to the range where I live. (100+kms from Auxere). The Walker is literally a blast. The Remmington and Colt typically shoot about 24 - 30 grains of Poudre Noir. the Walker uses 60... The Paper targets were devestated... :) Anyone shooting black powder... would definetely reccomend trying the walker at full load. What an absolute blast...

Lori Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 I remember way back when my Dad taught me how to shoot a handgun. I rather liked it. I'm glad your wife is having fun with you Afy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
