    Learning to shoot a 12ga SxS

    I’ve shot unmentionable shotguns my whole life and even experimented with shot in my Brown Bess for a bit, but I finally decided to get a Pedersoli SxS to do some real patterning and clay shooting. All for fun of course. My model has the interchangeable chokes. Not terribly HC, but I bought a...

    Pedersoli Indian Trade Musket. What’s not HC/PC?

    I’ve been contemplating assembling a Pedersoli Indian Trade Gun kit. I realize the gun has some details that aren’t quite correct for a trade gun, whether it be a NW or Carolina. What exactly am I looking at having to modify/replace? -Sideplate? -Lock? -Ramrod thimbles? -Trigger/Triggerguard...

    Kerr Bullets in an 1858?

I’ve experimented with the Johnston and Dow design and it doesn’t shoot as well as roundball for me. The J&D design is also fairly long and the rammer on my Pietta flattens the noses when loading...

    My groups opened up. Patch change?

    Long story short, I was shooting well with my .54 Rice 44” radius rifled barrel using 100gr FFg, .530 ball, and a lubed mattress ticking patch. I shot today with the same set up and instead of shooting the center out at 75 yards my group opened up to about 6”. I tried more/less powder and the...

    Flint Pistols in .54 caliber?

    Hello all, After finishing a rifle in .54 I’m interested in purchasing or assembling a .54 pistol. It can be rifled but I’d prefer a smoothbore for the ease of loading and option to use shot. Pedersoli sells a Kentucky kit but I’ve heard the design isn’t very strong and I don’t know if I can...
