[quote="MoJo"]Here's some links to some loaded Black Powder .44 Russian ammo and a link to a source for unloaded brass. .44 Special is too long for the chamber you could cut some .44 special brass down to .44 Russian but with brass available that's a lot of unnecessary work. It's all pricey but for the enjoyment of shooting a relic of the early days of cartage guns it might be worth it. Remember, if you do shoot it with BP, that BP is highly corrosive and the gun must be cleaned properly.
Thanks, Yes I am aware of the corrosive properties of BP. This pistol was well cared for as the barrel is shiney, smooth and bright with good rifling.
