Dustin Winegar tests the accuracy of a Uberti reproduction 1847 Colt Walker revolver using a bench rest. The test involves firing six shots each at 50 feet, 25 yards, and 75 yards. The firearm utilizes 40 grains of Goex 3F G black powder, Cabela's pre-lubricated felt wads, .45 caliber round balls, and Remington No. 10 percussion caps. Results indicate good accuracy at closer ranges, with a tendency to shoot high at longer distances.
