Hi Gary, Buffalo Bore makes some (although expensive) here : (https://www.buffaloarms.com/50-70-sharps-black-powder-ammo-425-grain-512-lead-bullet-box-of-20-amo5070425b)

its not very common if you don't reload you would be better with a different caliber here is some available but its EXPENSIVE http://www.ows-ammo.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=58_21&products_id=9

To continue Its hard to find and I think you should consider the 1863 in 45 70 even though its out of stock right now https://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/719015901/CHIAPPA+SHARPS+1863+CAVALRY

Yes ammo is available for this rifle. It can be purchased at buffalo arms, and through other sites as well. Hope this helps.
