Careful doing a lot of shooting useing those 457 balls the weak link in the 1858 Remington is in the little loading lever pins ...I`ve sheered one in half before , ( like a sheer pin ) I`ve started useing a cylinder loading stand so my ball rammers stay tight like new .
If the 451 balls are shaveing lead when loading they`ll shoot fine ..I go with the 454 balls because all my cap and ballers shoot the 454 well ...The 457 balls will shave a lot of lead , wasted lead ..Lead is getting expencive .
I haven`t started saveing the shaved lead yet ..but I do pick up balls from the berm and around the steel targets .
