Remington Revolving Rifle: Loading and Shooting Remington's First Repeating Rifle
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 июн 2014
- Uberti "1858 New Army Target Carbine". Loading, then shooting at steel plate targets.
Shooting starts at 4:13 with 100 and 120 yard targets.
50 yard targets at 9:20.
Then the pace picks up a little with some faster gallery-style shooting at 10:30.
This a cap and ball revolving rifle, and is loaded with black powder, lead round balls, and percussion caps. I wear a bandana when shooting it, as it does spray some burning powder and cap bits back toward my face. Fortunately, the lead goes the other way.

If this was the Civil War, loading began while Fort Sumter was under siege and finished just before the Appomattox peace signing.
If I was good with antique weapons and teleported to the civil war I would definitely become one of those sharpshooter snipers so that I can atleast compensate for that loooooooooooonnng reload.
I like how the others are spraying the fuck out of the mountain side and the one with the black powder cap and ball is hitting steel every shot
I was laughing at the same thing! 😂 In the time it took him to accurately fire six shots some other dudes put 40-50 rounds into the dirt. Tenderizing the hill I guess.
I bloody love coming back here and watching the loading process. So soothing.

I once read a report written by an Army officer doing official testing of original revolving rifle. He found them to be incredibly accurate at extreme ranges. I don't know if they were ever purchased in any numbers to be of use. The accuracy he obtained was uncanny.
I have the replica Uberti Remington Army cap&ball .44, one with 8" barrel and one with a 5.5" barrel. Using 255 grain conical bullets, over 25 grs (Swiss 4Fg or Hodgden 777 3Fg), from a solid bench rest, two-hand hold, either handgun will consistently tightly group(3"-4" groups!) all 6 bullets in the head of a silhouette target at 100 yards. The loads make 950 fps from the 5.5" and 1000 fps from the 8" barrel, and duplicate the original 1873 45 Colt cartridge loaded with 40 grains of 2Fg black powder. The finer-grained black powder (Swiss) only needs 25 grs to achieve the same velocity that needed 40 grs of coarse-grained 2Fg! Have a R&D 45 Colt conversion cylinder too. With careful safe pressure handloads of a 255gr bullet at the same velocities as the C&B cylinders, the 45 Colt cylinder shoots to same point of aim and is almost as accurate as the C&B cylinders. The C&B loadings seem to always shoot just a bit tighter groups than the cartridge cylinder. Most modern shooters are clueless about just how deadly accurate and hard hitting at long handgun range a .44 Army cap and ball revolver actually is when properly loaded! At long handgun range a C&B revolver will shoot with an incredible precision that a modern auto pistol cannot come close to achieving!
I once had a tuned cap and ball revolver which was much more accurate than my Ruger 44 magnum. Black powder burns much more consistently than smokeless. Old timers had more options for extremely high quality black powder which simply is not available today. Some made their own from family recipes handed down. Making your own is risky business unless you know what you are doing. You tube has videos of how to but sometimes it is best to stick with the real experts and do your homework and take all recommended precautions.

That is beautiful!. Thanks for sharing this with us all and hope that you are doing well and still enjoying such a great looking firearm. 🙏🍻
Dude you are a boss with that thing! Awesome shooting!
A well thought out gun, simply beautiful in my eyes. Nice shooting..
The war has been ended dude the reloading took 15 years
Mr.n!ce guy ikr. Damn it took a while
@@bluewolvesstudios2822 ñññ
.
It took him almost 6 minutes just to reload 6 bullets(balls)
They wouldn't have reloaded muzzleloaders in wars like that
They had rolled up paper cartridges with powder and a bullet already in it, they would just take that and ram it into the front of the cylinder in one go
Pure shooting say's it all, great video guy's thanks a lot.
Outstanding shooting! I just got one of these great little carbines from sportsmans guide and it arrived a few days ago. I also ordered the .45LC conversion cylinder from Brownells to go along with it. Just tonight, I ordered the Uberti 1858 Revolver which will also be able to use the conversion cylinder. I love the sexy lines of the 1858!
That little guy looks like a sweet shooter. Had I the money I'd get one along with a kirst converter for it.
Nice shooting! I had wanted one of these for years, finally got my hands on one, wound up having to sell it shortly afterward. Never got to shoot it. I'll get another one someday I'm sure. I loved that thing.
+Steven S. I hope you get another one! I have 2 and I love them :)
Bullets moving so slow you could see them in flight! Cool!

Loading is so much fun and I find it relaxing.
Very nice shooting...
This replica of original serial number 32 from Remington is awesomely made by Uberti. You can preload many cylinders and switch as easily as any rem58... and it is VERY powerful (1000joules with .457 round balls and full chambers of swiss1) and very accurate with its 18 inch barrel.
Don’t ever forget your shooting glasses.
Every single shoot is precious 😀
As soon as i heard the range guy speak over the PA i knew you were at Angeles Shooting range, love your rifle you make it look so easy.
Beautiful revolving Carbine. Thanks for sharing.
Fine shooting from a beautiful firearm.
Its the most beatiful rifle i ever saw
Nice shooting, that gun in 357 would be a dream.
Uberti has created a carbine version of the Model 1873 Single Action Army for some time now. Complete with the historically accurate name of "Model 1873 Cattleman", it is virtually identical to this 66' Remington. Available in .45LC, .44-40 Centerfire and .357 Mag/.38Spl. NOTE: These guns are much more rare than the regular 73' pistol they mass-produce. The last time I checked they were only available on Taylor's Firearms. A call to Dixie Gun Works and Cabelas did not yield anything.
Nice BP New Army revolving Carbine by Uberti my favorite BP revolver manufacturer. Excellent shooting fella with it to 100 yds. Maybe I'll order one someday.
This gun is beautiful. a piece of art.
Sweet Angeles pistol range. I never get tired of shooting the 100 yard square target on the left with my Glock 17 and Sig 226 Elite, simply so much fun. Never brought enough rounds with me there. Nice video!
0:16 a 0:20
Did anyone else hear the beat? 😂
# Lurchliebe I heard it
Lmao
Someone please make a remix of this!
that killing me
🎶☺️🎶
At a time where many fellows had one shooters only, that Remington Rifle and Revolver did allow one man to fire 12 rounds. That was rather formidable in the good old times...percussion firearms times. Some of the early Texas Rangers carried four Revolvers and fired 24 rounds from a galloping horse. The first bold Comanches that had faced them bold Rangers in combat, for sure got surprised by that firepower.
Whay did they do that? Maniacs?

Оружие супер ! Не просто тупо пострелять , зарядить его - удовольствие , творческий процесс...
Very nice shooting - amazed that these shoot so accurately out to 100!
There are good reasons Wild Bill Hickok stuck with Remington New Army his whole life, despite cartridge revolvers coming along in the 1870s (he certainly could have afforded a Colt or Smith & Wesson cartridge gun if he wanted one). With paper or skin cartridges, you can load one of these about as fast as a Colt Peacemaker, plus load with loose components if you're not in a hurry or out of cartridges. They were every bit as accurate as the cartridge guns of the day, very similar power, ammunition was lighter and cheaper (though the price differential disappeared if you reloaded your brass), exactly the same effort to clean after shooting.
Cap and ball wasn't really obsolete until smokeless took over in the 1890s, and it's still very practical for some applications a century and a half after the Rollin White patent expired and let everyone build cartridge revolvers.
What a lovely firearm! I love the old guns. Kind Thanks and keep your powder goin! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania
If you preload Four or Five cylinders , it's easy and quick to swap them out just like clips in a semi auto. I love this gun because it breaks us free from the bullet manufacturer. This ammo and powder comes from nature, no stores required. If guns were ever taken from us, this would be the fall back gun that saves our freedom. Everyone should own one.
You got $2,000 to drop so you can reload faster? Lol
@@CountryboyCale uh, they're 60 bucks each
@@ClauseofCannabis still, 4x60 is $240.
@@CountryboyCale wow, almost 10x less!

Thanks for posting this vid!! Great shooting!

Beautiful rifle I have one and love it
I have owned this magnificent rifle for over 2 years now and I have dropped 1 hog and 3 coyotes with it. Most recent coyote kill was just 2 weeks ago. A friend in West PA has had a problem coyote on his land for some time which was posing a great danger to kids who play in the fields and woods. Not to mention several pets have disappeared from the surrounding homes with blood tracks found. I took my 1866 rifle out to his farm and set up in a thicket on one of the meadows. I was using traditional cap and ball on this hunt. 37 grains Swiss FFFg and 140 grain Hornady .454 roundball. After spending about 4 hours in the hideout and 2 Maverick Reds later, my friend brought the critter running with repeated blows on a distressed-rabbit call. At 110 yards away the yote stopped, broadside to me and I fired. Instant kill with just iron sights. When we headed out to the site on horses that he kept on his property, we found that the roundball had drilled through both shoulders, shattering the spine on it's way out. This little rifle is NOTHING to frown at. At the minimum, it will produce ballistics on par with a hot .44-40 round and at max, it exceeds .357 Magnum performance, especially with cast conicals.
Good stuff mate. Bought down kangaroos with my single shot 50cal BP rifle. Love the smell and the noise and the success of a hunt. Great video.
nifty1940 I thought guns were banned in Australia
If you're not asking that in jest, then, yep, we do have them, but heavily restricted. And it's getting worse. Everything now is justification! It's a pain in the proverbial and it never used to be until that Tassie devil/maniac - Martin Bryant - used his Colt SLR .223 to murder 35 and wound some 20+, John Howard (Prime Minister at the time) then had all semi's outlawed and it's grown from that. Club membership is the legit way to have short and longarms, but, even then with restrictions. They don't worry too much about muzzleloader's as it's a single shot, loaded with effort. And besides who'd mow down so many with a single shot, cos you'd be trampled to death trying to reload.
nifty1940 it sounds horrible..... I've seen the videos on the "gun buyback program" they used over there. it was like some sort of twisted nightmare... all those guns destroyed for nothing. have to ask, with all those guns gone do you feel safer?
Big brother was leashed on us through that prick, Bryant. Safer, Hell no. The deaths keep coming, in all sorts of ways. My firearms are locked away in steel lined safes, behind reo'd windows, doors and latches with keys well hidden. I had a 3 hour stand off inside my home against a bloke armed with scissors, my wife hiding in the bedroom and my guns securely locked some 30 ft away, and I felt helpless. I'd have had more effect whipping out the old fella, and bashing him to death over the intruders bleeding head. The star force cops were outside while a brave cop negotiated, eventually successfully, thank God. i hate that Bryant. he took away my right of self defense and restricted my freedom to defend my family. They take away your guns, they take away your rights.
I have a Cattlemen carbine in 45 long colt. I love that thing. 🤠
I just put a howel in my remmy, they're 5 chamber evenly spaced with pin backplate and notches for cylinder lock pin to hold it in between chambers (c&b cylinder has hammer knotches). with I could get the steel carbine, all I've found is brass frame.
The load time is long but the fire power is real. Nice firearm’
Just a work of art. Beautiful. 777
I always wondered why the cavalry of that era didn't ever fully adopted using these & instead used single shot carbines . However @ that point ( the civil war era ) guns were going through such rapid development that the weapons a cavalryman might have started the war with may not have been the weapons he ended using . Still fascinating to see this historic carbine in action. TY for posting.
Power and range. Being the big factors . Pre civil war they had what they called horse pistols normally carried in a holster on the horse itself (Colt dragoon ) too big for hip holsters.but still relied on the saber. Then for rifles they might be expected to engage defensively still from greater distances. Plus they trialed some the carbines like this but for those and other reasons they rejected them. Same reasons commercially on the civilian market they never really sold well.
Sure wouldn't want to get your hands near the cylinder gap.
Wear a long leather glove on your resting hand.
Classic and nice designed.
REAL RIFLE MAN
That's some fine shooting Sir.
I have the pistol in SS and eight barrel. Cleans up real nice with Windex and paper towels. Using paper shells makes for faster reloading. It's a Euroarms version of 63 that's 1963..
Amazing design!
Wow awesome man I love that raffle good
Great art.
Very nice shooting!
I'm not sure why people are commenting about how long it took to load this Carbine......its a cap and ball, the same as most other pistols of the day...this would be normal...
Absolutely
With how fast you can change the cylinders to loaded ones, this thing will compete with modern revolvers let alone the guns of its day.
Legend has it when each side has this gun. You hear firing this gun then went to absolute silence
Wow clasic and powerfull
Accurate. Impressed
Nice peace of History right there!
such a slick and beautifull rifle!
+KrutoyPostowoy Indeed :)
Anybody wanna talk about the little paw tattoo on the back of his right hand?! No? Okay. Nice video by the way.
I was wondering if it was a tat or if it was a club entry stamp from the night before (based on lack of outline, color, size, placement)....
Old is gold
I just bought one of these bad boys last weekend at a gun show!

Amazing 👍
Epic firearm and Channel
*THE WAR ENDS STILL RELOADING*
Just added this to my xmas list
Adoro essas armas ❤️
Good shooter and hardware:). A perfect illustration why reload is more exiting then shooting;)
Most people dont know how good of a shoot a person had to be back in the old days lol
They never fired this gun actually...by the time it was loaded..enemies died waiting n boredom
Tell that to Comanches, Sioux, Kiowa ect.
this gun need ~5 seconds to be reloaded: like a common Remington 1858, in battle they change the cylinder, and to reload the cylinders they use paper cartiges, so was not so long to reload as ignorants think...
Lmao
@@leneanderthalien Agreed , humans are ignorant as usual......you can tell who ARE NOT the black powder shooters
Ignorant people make ignorant comments, black powder won wars and put food on the table
You can load much faster than that. Ball on top of the powder, grease over the round with a syringe, cap with in line capper. About 1 and a half minutes. Got a pistol version myself.
Took a long time to load but he shot a lot of times. Looks like the old cowboy movies were right. Probably fired it a hundred times. Load on Sunday and shoot all week!! Cool at any rate!!
That is cool did think it would work so well
I have this inner fear that when people load the balls in, the press might snap🤣
Realy nice gun
This is very nice

Is the cylinder removable? So, You know, you can do the 'speedload' by simply changing the whole cylinder?
Yea but the cylinders are rather expensive
+Junior Parker Especially if you have the cartridge conversion cylinders like I do.. Those are almost $300 each! :(
who makes the cartridge conversion cylinders and what caliber are they
@@speechmeister By the time conventional cartridges were made practical with the colt single action army, then there would've been lever action rifles that were a good deal safer, faster, and more practical than a revolver rifle.
@@speechmeister There is a Colt Army Carbine reproduction sold by the same company.
Just like every western movies...
You loaded 6 shots or so and you shoot forever... :D :D :D :D :D
Please use proper capper for this revolver, click on us ;).

Most westerns take place after Metallic cartridges already became common after the civil war
Most westerns take place around the late 1860s to 1890s...When metallic was common
@@granddukeofmecklenburg There were many cartridge revolvers in the civil war, point? Existed in the hundreds of thousands. And over half are set in the Civil War period... ball and cap revolvers were popular through the 1870s and 90s, so you are wrong on many levels.
Good shooting! I've shot Black powder for 40+ years just for fun. Two range things I know for sure: Don't carry on a conversation while loading. A distraction caused a squib and fortunately only cost me a barrel.
Expect an occasional RSO to yell at you for "handling a weapon" if you're anywhere in the process of loading or even swabbing during "range cold" time.
Very strong
This is cool mannn
Esa carga tan meticulosa es para aprovechar y disfrutar cada disparo al 100%
look pretty cool
very beautiful
Hi how's things going. One more question...have you taken the Remington carbine any further than 120?
i love revolving rifles
I would be curious what kind of velocity that thing makes. Cool rifle.
Good luck 👍
What a beautiful weapon , I would give my eye teeth to own one with extra cylinders to switch out if possible.
д
this gun seems to be very powerful!
Not by today's standards
What an awesome rifle never knew uberti made reproductions of these! Also sucks to see so many toxic comments
I wish in Brazil it was possible to have this type of weapon but the bureaucracies here barely allow you to have a revolver
With Kaidos, this would be a game dropper.
nice gun
Now this is what I’m talking about
I love black powder ❤️💣💥
I have shot a lot of deer and coyote with the revolving rifle I love it ,also enjoy your videos thanks
I always admired the Uberti cattleman's carbine, I wonder if a Black powder cartridge cylinder is available.
cool I like it
