    Uberti are excellent quality in every way. You are not obliged to shoot BP in .38-55 but I will think less of you for not. (Why not - its much easier to clean than smokeless, and much more fun to load for. )

    I would get the 24 inch in the lever action, the carbine are great but the rifle is a different animal.(And its a plus for black powder, which, I know, you're not going to use...)

    Molds from Accurate Molds in the USA.

    A 94 with a 24 barrel and a tang sight, in .38-55 would be a great stag rifle....
    This one?

    Long or short brass?
    I know a lot but it seems less every day...
