Finally decided to get a BP revolver

I'll second (or 3rd or 4th) the recommendation for the 1858 Remington. It's a large enough caliber to easily load, prime, and clean -- and it makes a big bang. The Remington is a little easier and simpler to work with than a Colt.

As already mentioned you can get lots of info by reading past post on this forum. You'll have to do some experimentation to find a powder, powder measure, cap loader, and cap brand/size that works best for YOU. And cleaning products is a whole 'nother field of choices and opinions.

If you are looking for a source of products, I like Dixie Gun Works.
