I just got a PM from a fellow on this forum who informed me that the .36 Cal. 350 lead round balls I bought will not work in an Uberti 1851 Colt Navy. It's needs a .380. Thanks partner.

I checked the Uberti USA Web Site and for the .36 Cal it's .380 and for the .44 Cal it is .454. Pietta says .36 Cal = .375 and .44 Cal =.454.

Good stuff to know when starting out. It's the little things in life that drive us nuts. Glad I found that out before driving 20+ miles to an out door range.
