Christmas in June

[Trench]

Along with the rifle from Roy, I received some other great stuff in June. In the pictures is the rifle, my new linen tailcoat, a powder horn by Scobrien and a powder charger from the same.

Got a close-up picture of Roy's scroll work on the patchbox. I'll be taking "Fearnaught" to the range tomorrow morning.

The horn will be paired with the rifle.

Today was a good day.

Nice glad you finally got it! :thumbsup:

I had to knock down some more walls today to find the rifle. My mail carrier dropped it off at my local UPS Store for some reason on Friday. I spent an hour at the Post Office trying to figure out where it ended up. As usual, the first person you talk to doesn't have a clue. It's always the second person to help you that has all the answers. I almost hugged her.

I want a range report!!

 

[Trench]

It's coming. :wink: I just had my first session on Sunday. The rifle was shooting a foot high at 50 yards. I filed the rear sight down quite a bit.

It was a breezy day, but I got a 2.11 in group with a 60gr charge at 50yds. Now that it'll most likely shoot on paper, I'll do some serious load work-up next time out.
