Took 3 shots to get it on, then moved over to a 4圆 clanger I have at 100 yds, and put 5 shots dead center in a 1 3/4' splatter on the red paint. I zeroed the cheap tang sight first at 100 yds, shooting some 405 grs I had cast with 13.5 grs of unique. 400 high, and and a tall Lyman flip up buckhorn on the rear barrel slot. I removed both of them, put a Lyman 17 globe on the front about. He had filed the front blade sight till it was down to the base, and filed on the rear sight till it was ruined. It was a high humidity day of the preview, and there were a mass of rust fingerprints on the blue barrel, which helped me get it for cheap, oil and steel wool and they all disappeared like they were never there. The guys collection had some of the awfulest bubbaized guns I have ever seen, also had a bunch of Brownelles gunsmith stuff that I got at a good price, Bubba fancied himself a gunsmith I suppose. Has a 30' Heavy octagonal barrel, brass band and trigger plate ala Navy Arms, beautiful case colors and french walnut with the black streaks thru ther forearm, brass butt plate. I got this off a local auction sight, pretty nice rifle. This rifle impressed me, shooting as good as any of my Hi Walls, Sharps or original Remington rollers. Should be close to dead on at 200 yds.I have about 2' of travel left, on the peep stem, should get me to 500 yds which is the farthest range I have avialable locally. I went ahead and zeroed the buck horn, then moved the peep up so it was shooting a little hight at 150 yds, limit of my range on the same 4圆 clanger.

A buddy who was spotting for me then shot 3 more in my group.
