Old Dragoon, the Kirsts will take Schofield .44's the old version R&D drop-ins will not unless modified to accept the Schofield rim, but it has been done. I believe I was told the New R&D drop-in 6 shot will accept the Schofield. The new ones have a nurled ring around the cylinder. my Dragoon is the old style and is smooth and has the slots where you can see if there is a case in a chamber or not. I perfer the .45LC as I can load it any way I want. The Schofield has a limited max and that's one reason the Military rejected them...the other reason was that Colt beat them to it.
Do you use healed or hollow base bullets in the .44-40? I'm sure you do, but more wondering where you get them or the mold from, just curious.
