    Pedersoli Howdah Tuning

    I have two Howdah´s, both .20 Caliber. I read that some of you guys own this gun, too. Several shooters here had excellent ideas for tuning the pedersoli kodiak. So what can be done about the Howdah? At the present time I just polished the triggers otherwise the guns are unchanged.

    Bullet Casting and Moulds

    Thank you for the answers. I feel that bullets for precision muzzleloaders and bpcr are close together. And a lot of designs that look and sound logically don´t work at the range. If you look at the people that won the matches - they often use what has been used since a few hundred years...

    Pacific Rifle Zephyr + African Zephyr

    The 8 gauge african zephyr will cost nearly 3000 USD, really a lot of money. and even the 12 gauge isn´t cheap. However, in 12 they use 250 Grains (nearly 10 drams!!) blackpowder to propel a patched round ball to 1900 fps ... that really a lot !!! I don´t think that a single gun ever made...

    Pacific Rifle Zephyr + African Zephyr

    There is a single barrel underhammer "rifle" with smooth barrel and only a kind of paradox choke near the muzzle. It made in Gauge 20, 12 and 8. Does anyone own such a gun or used it ?

    Pedersoli Kodiak .72 question

    Hello, again. First of all: No, I´m not a hunter. Where I live (germany) a hunting license is not quite easy to get; it´s expensive and an expensive “education” is needed with a lot of things to learn that not really belong to hunting. Germany is a small country with lots and lots of people...
