The 44/40 is a good choice in the rifle if you intend to shoot black powder as the bottleneck case keeps a lot of the fouling from blowing back into the action. I'm not a fan of the Uberti 1875. I've worked on a few and it just didn't seem like Uberti put as much attention to quality in them that they have in their more popular Colt clones.
44/40 is a reloading proposition unless you have deep pockets. They are more tedious than straight wall cases but not too bad.
