In this video I discuss the Uberti Schofield reproduction and discuss whether or not modern reproductions are capable of being used with real black powder.
Apparently this video is more about the sunglasses than the gun, you can find them here:

Yes, please feature this revolver more. There are videos of it here and there on YT but not enough in my opinion, I can find plenty of information on the Peacemaker though. I bought the 7.5" Schofield from Uberti chambered in .45 LC because the No.3 ended up being my favorite sidearm in Battlefield 1. It is very accurate in real life and the trigger throw on it is superb with a nice crisp break in my opinion. Things I would be interested in would be the average velocity of .45 LC if you could put it through a chronograph and its viability as a brush gun when deer hunting.

45 colt, 44 spl, and 44-40 are totally viable as medium game cartridges with 230-250 grain semi wadcutter or flatnose lead slugs at around 1000 fps. Excellent penetration, good bleed holes, and manageable recoil.

Have you got an older Smith to compare the trigger to? The biggest thing I worry about with these things is dropping all of that money on one and still wanting to rip it apart to try to clean up the action. I still want a Model 3 of any kind and a SAA of any kind some day. I'll settle for my H&R 999 for now.

@@xb0xisbetter Sorry I don't have an older S&W. I have several 1911's and compared to my Glocks I would put the trigger break of the No.3 on par, if not as good as the 1911. While fundamentally different designs I was always on the hunt for a pistol that had the trigger break to match my 1911. On a side note though that cross bar they added for safety can get in the way sometimes and cause it to bind but that has only happened to me after putting multiple cylinders of Cowboy loads through it. I understand that can make a break a pistol for some but being able to own a 'New' piece of history makes up for it in my mind. I have no issue with any other functionality of the gun. On a side note as well and totally unrelated to the trigger, I found that you can fit 5 rounds on the 91/30 Mosin stripper, its like a cheap mans quick reload just drop the round in the cylinder and pull it off the clip.

@@RG1001 Interesting insights, thank you. Even 1911 triggers can vary a lot though. Like I did a trigger job to the factor parts of my stupid Taurus PT1911 and I swear it is still worse than even factory triggers from other companies. Ironically, my Charles Daly turned out extremely light and crisp but I did put a different trigger altogether in that. My Metro Arms American Classic II's factory trigger was better than the PT1911 after a trigger job, and my Colt Combat Elite's is nice enough stock that I'm not going to bother. I have some older Smith Model 66s, with the pinned barrel and recessed cylinder and I literally don't feel anything pulling that trigger with the hammer back. I suppose they may not make .45 LC speed loader that fits the cylinder? Mosin strippers are an interesting idea.

I have done extensive blackpowder testing with my uberti schofield. I have gotten the best results using olde eynsford powder, it burns cleaner like the original blackpowder of the day. Coupled with an original style BP bullet like the Nei 454230 or lyman 454190, lube is home made 50/50 beeswax, crisco (no salt) in a Schofield case. This would average me around 775fps with good accuracy. Regular Goex would bind after about 12-15 rounds where the olde eynsford would go 50 rounds before binding. A significant improvement, making range sessions much more enjoyable. This worked in my gun that has a fairly generous cylinder gap. Just an FYi for those wanting to stay with the Holy Black.

I have a theory that Schofield had army supply connections so they plotted togther with S&W. Intending to design that short knowing it would run out from being used out in colts too . The problem would force the army to drop the colts to standard Schofield shorts enabling the suppliers to corner the ammunition contract as well. Turns out the army kept the colt and dumped the Schofield instead. Big oops.
@BogeyTheBear
@BogeyTheBear 2 жыл бұрын
I figure if that was the plan, S&W would have designed a round that actually fit the Colt. The .45 Schofield round was not a perfect replacement for .45 Colt because of the rim. A soldier loading their Colt SAA with .45 Schofield could only load three rounds, one for every other chamber, because the wide rims interfered with each other. The M1887 Ball cartridge is the length of .45 Schofield but with a narrower rim than the original .45 Schofield, just so you could fully load a Colt SAA with the rounds.

Hey Karl, people in black powder groups did lol kinds of ‘testing’ with these and black powder. If you use shorter 45 schofield and especially 45 cowboy special, and grease up the ‘arbor’ you can get almost 50 shots through before the gun locks up from the fouling. Mine will only get maybe 1-2 cylinders with 45 colt, about 30-35 with 45 schofield and 40-50 with the cowboy special. The shorter brass, less powder and grease seem to be the ‘solution’. Great video!

Good point. I've found that to be true to the point that nearly all my .45 BP shooting is with Schofield cases. I always check to see if the cylinder will turn freely after shooting a cylinder-full. If not, it's easily removed, cleaned, and regreased. I'm still playing around on the best grease to use. Very few modern revolvers would handle BP well and the new Schofield is no different. c

I have the 7 inch nickel Schofield and a few years ago, I tried loading it with 45 colt cartridges with pyrodex. It did the exact same thing that the black powder did with yours. It was jamming up by the second cylinder and couldn't fire the third without cleaning. Being as it is the nickel Schofield, it made it super easy to find every tiny bit of fouling to clean. Took a good hour to clean it up completely. I'll have to get some of that black horn, it seems like it would work a lot better.

I have the standard length barrel model, and it is not only a fun shooter, it is absolutely beautiful to behold. As a long time owner of a Webley Mk.

You are partially correct on the ammunition issue, I suggest you go to Cartridges of the World , by Frank C Barnes, the .45 colt ammunition had a larger rim then the .45 Schofield, they did issue the Schofield amnunituon to Troopers etc with Colt single Action Armies, the .45 Schofield Ammunition would on occasion would slide to far forward in the chambers, out of reach of the firing pin , so troopers would have to rattle their Colt Single Action armies so as to get the .45 Schofield Ammunition seated back into proper position, so in the end the developed a new Cartridge called the .45 Government, it was a .45 Colt case shortened to .45 Schofield length, issue resolved. Modern .45 Schofield Ammuntion is infact .45 Government. Remember casings of those days were balloon head cases, were modern cases are solid head cases, ballon cases also worked better from what I'm told with black powder.

great content - I love those top break revolvers. with the black powder, it seemed like it was fine through the first 6 shots, but immediately started binding upon reloading. i wonder if inserting the new cartridges forces fouling from the cylinder into the cone. a way to test it would be to shoot six in 45 Colt, and then reload in 45 Schofield....for science?

It’s funny that this should appear right now. I’m working on a character for a TTRPG (GURPS for anyone who cares) who uses a very custom S&W number 3 chambered for .44-40 in addition to some other kit. Nice to see something on this :)

Look up the 1st model Double Action Frontier. It is in .44/40 and first appeared around 1882, I believe. It is considered a variant of the number 3. I own one that was made in 1889 that has tight action. Nice crisp single action let off but the double action is a stiff trigger pull.

Stupid S&W bean counters back in the day making that great gun in 45 Schofield instead of 45 Colt

Think it was marketing, forced the army to buy ammo from them and maybe get the army to drop Colt

@@demonprinces17 They dropped the 45 and basically stole the whole market for both the SW and Colt, so it worked.

Looking at the difference in ejection in this video I think S&W went with the shorter length cartridge to get the empties to drop free more easily with the stroke they were able to design into the ejector mechanism.

Black powder fouling endurance tests for historic firearms would be an awesome series along a similar vein as the mud tests.
