Help with ammo question on 45 Schofield ?

[dcooley]

Will 45 Schofield ammo shoot in A 45 Long Colt revolver Judge ?

Thanks,,,,,,,,,

Generally, yes.

The .45 LC is a longer cartridge than the Schofield.

Think of it as a .357/.38 type of situation.

ETA:

The only problem you MAY encounter is that because the Schofield has a larger rim on the cartridge, you may not be able to load two
consecutive rounds. You may have to stagger the rounds in the cylinder to allow them to fit.
