You'll really want the CC one, after you hold one.
Both are very nice in finish.

Naw I saw and handled one of those in 357, it's nice enough, but to me it's almost to gaudy for a working gun like the 73.

What's the ETA on this rifle.

Not sure when we'll find one now. The outfit I was dealing with showed they had one in stock, but after I placed the order, they said no go..

Call this outfit. Good folks and I have had many dealings with'em.

Lyman also lists a gas check bullet being suitable for the 44-40, that being the 429434 bullet. Its a 215 gr bullet. I personal haven't tried it but never know it might work well.
