I was involved in a local production of an anti-DUI TV ad. I was there for hours on the set for a segment that was barely 5-10 seconds long. The company I worked for donated the use of two wrecked cars and our truck with me operating it. The donation was supposed to show the truck long enough and clear enough to read the company name. They showed so little of it that no one other than other tow truck operators knew it was a tow truck.

Actually the film takes place post Civil War a few years past 1874 which is the date of manufacture for the Sharpes 50-90. Quigley was actually shooting a 45-110. And in the hands of a trained and combat hardened veteran the weapon would be very deadly as the manufactured effective range of the Sharpes was 500 yds. In fact what made a sniper in the 19th century was in addition to his native ability to shoot straight, was his ability to see without spectacles as they were not common. 20-20 vision was a force multiplier, glasses are something we take granted today but were extremely rare and unheard of on the battlefield especially with riflemen. If you can't see it then you can not hit it. In fact there is a documented kill at 1390 yards using a Whitworth rifle: "On Dec. 5 1864 an unidentified Confederate soldier in Fort Sumter saw a Union soldier moving in Battery Gregg, 1390 yards away. The Southerner was likely using a Whitworth Rifle when he lined up his sights on the Union soldier and fired, killing him. That's longer than any confirmed kill of World War I or II and only 400 yards shy of making a modern top 10 list. Wikipedia still ranks it as the 14th longest sniper kill in history. Whitworth Rifles are sometimes called the first real sniper rifle. Capable of accurate fire at 800 yards, its hexagonal rounds could penetrate a sandbag to kill an enemy standing behind it." www.businessinsider.com/one-of-historys-longest-sniper-kills-happened-during-the-civil-war-2015-10 Then of course there is Billy Dixon's confirmed kill at 1538 yds in June 1887 using a Sharpes 50-90. It is still the 14th longest confirmed sniper kill in history. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_recorded_sniper_kills Rifled barreled using black powder firing Minie balls were routinely used far in excess of 100 yards by trained "skirmishers". The Kentucky Long Rifle is a formidable weapon well past 300 yards, however, the rate of fire is very low as the balls must be slightly bigger than the barrel, of course Claude-Étienne Minié solved that problem. The body count of the Civil War will attest to the lunacy of using rifles loaded with Minie balls in formations when previously smooth bore muskets blasted away. Rifled pistols were also very accurate and could achieve modest groups well past 25 yds by trained officers especially Dueling or Target pistols and this with flintlock duelers in the early 1800's which by the mid 1700's almost all duelers were rifled. Reloading took too much time so they were not used much in combat.

british duelling pistols were never rifled it was considered unsporting read any book on antique flintlocks and you will see this. in fact cardigan of light brigade fame once fought a duel and was nearly indicted as his own pistol was half rifled which was considerd unsporting as he fought the duel in france he was ok however anyone who tried it in england pre 1830 would have faced execution even if he didnt kill his opponent as rifling was thought to give a better advantage cheating.the main difference in us duels was that you set out to kill your opponent.jacksons fatal duel is a case in point his opponent missed but he insisted on killing him.british duels though often fatal were more about honour and often were resolved by the fact both men were honourable enough to be willing to fight so they often shook hands at the last moment and called it off.the seconds would check the weapons for rifling hence the use of half rifling which could not be spotted by a cursory look.the prince regent george4 had two pairs of mantons made allegedly one pair had a half rifled pistol and the other pair had one pistol with a crest plate on the outside curve of the butt which covered a preloaded second barrel as soon as the opponent sighted and fired he would shoot himself in the face and the sprung loaded plate would cover it. the prince was so unpopular he dreaded fighting duels but as he was a drunk and fantasist claiming he fought at waterloo when he was in england at the time he could never be certain that he wouldnt challenge someone when he was drunk and have to go through with it to live up to his totally imagined tough guy image.

@@mikekemp9877 You are quite wrong. I'd paste the photo but can not. Rifled dueling pistols were quite acceptable as long as both pistols were used. Many rifled dueling sets are in museum collections. French cased dueling pistols by Nicolas Noël Boutet. Single shot, flintlock, rifled, .58 caliber, blued steel, Versailles, 1794-1797 "Most English pistols had smooth bores, though some had scratch rifling, a subtle form of rifling which was difficult to see with the naked eye. Pistols with rifled barrel spin-stabilise the shot when it is fired, resulting in much improved accuracy. As a result, dueling pistols with rifled barrels were considered unsporting by many, although there was no unfairness so long as the pistols were identical." Flayderman, Norm (17 December 2007). Flayderman's Guide to Antique American Firearms and Their Values (9 ed.). Iola, Wisconsin: F+W Media, Inc. pp. 453-454. ISBN 0-89689-455-X. "In continental Europe, the use of smooth-bored pistols was considered cowardly, and rifled pistols were the norm. The short range most duels took place at, combined with the accuracy of rifled pistols meant their use substantially increased the chances of a fatality during a duel. A pair of rifled pistols often included a small hammer as an accessory; they used slightly oversized bullets and a hammer was needed to drive the bullet down the barrel when loading."

It's not a bad rifle, it's nice. But mostly it depends on the experience, skills, habits of the person and a little bit on the rifle itself. More people will not be able to survive at such a distance with these weapons. He who is more experienced will survive. There are certainly some subtleties that most people don't know about this kind of long-range shooting. Naturally, this person will not tell people's secrets just like that about long-range and accurate shooting. Anyone will try to keep the knowledge, the skill for themselves.

The record for 10 shots at 1,000 yards is just under 3 inches using a 50 power scope shooting a 6mm dasher load. That was for group size only, it was NOT in the center of the target. 200 is a perfect score for f-class, 20 rounds at a 10 inch bull at 1,000 yards, it is done but not by most, A 5 mph breeze can move the bullet 35 inches in 1,000 yards.

I routinely engaged targets (on a Range) at 1100 meters, using Iron Sights, with M60, and M240 machine guns (occasionally stroking off single shots to prove I could). I engaged man sized targets at 1500 meters with an M2HB (and hit them), using either Iron Sights, or BOT (Burst On Target) (observing bullet impact, and correcting). At least once I successfully engaged a target in Combat. I don't have particularly good vision! (I did have years of experience, and have fired several hundred thousand rounds!) Hard to believe, however, I, along with about a dozen other soldiers fired 10,000 rounds each. Using new barrels on our M60 machine guns. It was a barrel Ware test. I was a Marksmanship Instructor, and we would shoot off all the remaining ammo (anything that was not in an ammo can with the Seal intact. The ASP NCOs would hassle us, until we (quickly) learned to bring back only full Crates, Sealed ammo cans, and Expended Brass! It made little difference in the effort to clean an M16 or M4 if you fired 20 rounds, or 500-1,000 (although after 300 rounds, it was a good idea to clean it a bit. We would also use quite a bit of CLP before firing, if we knew we would be firing a lot.)

Estebahn Randolph - 110 grain is the powder charge. Listen again and you’ll hear the bullet weight of 500 grains. This was known as a 50-110. Similar to the 45-70.

540 grain leadbullet with paper wrapped around it to grip the rifling better, 110 grain blackpowder and .45-caliber. Even the .45/70 is being used at 1.000 yards today, albeit it has about 40-43yards drop at that range.

45 caliber, 110 gr. of black powder, 540 gr. paper patch bullet. Originally known as the 45-2 7/8. Today we call it the 45-110, and use bullets around 500 grains. 1000 yard shots are routine in matches.

@fireball1322

RELOADERS DO NOT USE THE PAPER PATCH WHEN LOADING BRASS CARTRIDGES. At least not in my experience/to my knowledge.. That is reserved only for "ball ammo" (Minie ball included) where there is no brass cartridge used.

Actually paper patched bullets were quite common in those days as bullets were all soft lead(no jackets) and the paper took the rifling reducing distortion of the bullet increasing accuracy.
@possumsausage5029

Paper patches were very common as they kept the lead off the barrel and stopped blow by which creates leading. It was a 45 caliber (probably .452-.452 diameter bullet with a paper patch bumping the size up to .458ish) with 110 grains by volume of black powder

Imagine being Alan Rickman and knowing that every acting role you'll get is due to the fact that your natural facial expressions make you look like a total jerk. He had to have known early on that he would never get to play the "good guy." I am in no way bashing Alan Rickman. I loved him as an actor...gone too soon.

Two things always bothered me about this scene.FIrst, the dust released right in front of the gun barrel. Makes me cringe at the thought of some of that dust fouling the barrel. Second, after shooting he blows into the breech to expel the gas/smoke. Maybe that's considered harmless but that's injecting humidity into the innards - which are not rustproof. Better to just clean the gun properly.

steve morrill whenever you’re shooting several shots of black powder, you blow into the barrel while warm to keep the fouling loosened up. You’re more than welcome to research by visiting with some NRA black powder shooters. A very good friend of mine won the Quigley Down Under event near Forsyth Montana.
@paparalph3273

Steve and Lloyd, apparently you have never shot black powder! Many of us who do, use a blow tube to blow a breath into the barrel after each shot. This keeps the fouling soft. Also many of us dip the bullet into Udderly Smooth Body Cream which also helps in keeping the fouling soft.
