    Have you thought about a 357 maximum?

    Yes however as far as I am aware neither Uberti or Pedersoli produce an 1885 high/low wall in 357max

    I'd just like to add a little to this thread.

    Of the top four people that shot in the 5702. 100y/200y/300y GRCF competition at this years Phoenix 3 of the 4 shot using Balzer .357 mag 158gr JHP rounds in the gold and blue box, at about 1650 fps. That's the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th placed shooters and with only 5 points separating the top 4 shooters with scores of 107, 105, 103, and 102.

    No reloading allowed over here in Ireland so we have to use factory ammo.

    It would be a Low Wall, and you are right. What a sweet gun that would be, eh? I have an Uberti High Wall is .45-70 Govt - it's the most graceful-looking long arm I've ever clapped eyes on.
