Colt Revolving Rifle

[MikB]

I have a BP 24" Uberti Peacemaker percussion with a clip on stock, thats a normal .44.

Its smoothbore though and I'm struggling a little with a variation for rabbits

You mean based on the 1873 revolver design, but with cap nipples instead of .44-40 or .45 LC cartridges?

If there's no cartridge with a nice roll crimp, I'd be more'n a bit worried about flashovers a couple of inches from my face, and with my left hand in front of the cylinder...

I mean exactly that Mik

Lubed wads should kill the flashover, but theres no way I'll be putting my front hand anywhere near the front of the cylinder

Glasses only methinks
