This is my new girl. Taking her for a bison hunt in 09. Uberti 1885 hi-wall in 45-70. 32" barrel and beautiful wood and metal. Hoping to mount the scope in the last pic on her. I really want to build a blackpowder cartridge for her so any help in that would be much appreciated!

Nice gun! You certainly can do the black powder thing or try Western Powders' new Blackhorn 209 black powder substitute. Current issue of Handloader has a write up on this Canadian made powder. I'll be trying it in my BPCR leverguns after hunting season is over.

Looks like fun. You might have to change your handle to Quigley!!

If your looking for a place to shoot it, come on out east.
