    Good all around hunting Smokepole .54 cal or .58 cal?

    Where I hunt, brush is thick and shots are usually not over 50 yards - about my limit with iron sights anyway. I bought a T/C Renegade percussion .54, and put a Green Mountain .58 barrel on it. Never even shot it as a .54 before I sold the barrel. About a year later, I found a .50 Renegade...

    Help with Kodiak

    Martin, Yes, this is the rifle I bought from George. I used a couple different bullet weights - 560, 525, 400, and charges from 80 - 100 grains of Pyrodex RS. Shots were all over the place. George made an insert so we could use a laser bore sighter on it and it doesn't seem to be a problem with...

    Help with Kodiak

    Well, got to bore sight the Kodiak (Thanks George!), and found out that the problem is with my shooting, or the load. The gun is tight. Very close to point of aim with both barrels. They did a good job regulating this one! Going to switch to Goex and a lighter conical and try it again. It was...

    Help with Kodiak

    I don't belive TruGlo makes anything but fiber optic sights. I've looked around and they make plenty of heights to choose from. I could be wrong, its happened before, but if that is what oletymepreacher is referring to, I'll try it. I'm not concerned with it being authentic, I'm concerned with...

    Thanks for the advise. I will try a shorter front sight. Do you remember where you got it? Is it fiber optic?

    Help with Kodiak

    I got the Kodiak .58 to the range last weekend. I tried different weight conicals, patched round balls and powder charges from 70 - 100 grains of Pyrodex RS. It has the two blade Express sights on it. The shorter leaf shoots about 18" low and the higher leaf is about 12" high. All shots were at...

    Pedersoli Kodiak

    It is going to be my hog rifle for this years ML season, so I've got about a month and a half to play with loads and conicals. I've wanted one for years, but never found one in my price range. This one was not only in my price range, but in 95% condition too. Stock has a couple dings, metal is...

    Pedersoli Kodiak

    I'm a new member, and I just aquired a Kodiak 58 caliber double rifle. Just wondering if there was anyone else who shoots one that could share some info.
