That was as tight a group an iron sighted lifle could deliver. I wondered, however, if the rifle forestock was resting on the cushion, instead of the barrel, whether the group would have shrunk a bit.

That sir is an absolutely beautiful rifle. I love the 45/70 and have a Marlin 1895 Guide gun that shoots the 325gr. Jacketed hollow point Federal rounds with amazing accuracy (using a "Skinner" peep sight). Someday, I would love to have a rifle like that. Update..... Just picked up a Winchester 1885 Hi Wall and it is awesome!

Can you explain to us Sir, why the first shot always goes high? I have been monitoring this closely for a number of years. I always fire one fouling shot at the beginning of every shooting session. I tape this hole before proceeding. I want to know exactly where my first shot goes, as this will be the most important shot fired while hunting. The first shot always goes high from a cold bore. I have found this to be the case whether the rifle is dirty or clean. I clean my guns after every session, but I have set my rifle aside for a week without cleaning, just to see if this will affect where the first shot goes. It does not. The first shot still goes high.

Im going to put my money on your technique, anticipation of the shot and recoil can cause most to move slightly as they brace. if you want to find out, make a simple cradle for the gun, then all you have to do is pull the trigger. then you can see how the cold bore affects the shot.

I can answer that, yes. I had a chance to handle one of these at an NRA convention some years back and if you don't push the trigger forward beforehand, it will have a heavier trigger, the one I handled was around the 7 to 8 pound range. When you push it forward and set it, it gives it a hair trigger, about 6 oz of I had to guess. The example I handled had a nice crisp trigger without setting it and would have been just fine for most hunting and field work, the set trigger would be for the more long range and precise shooting.

@@davidgardner863 .22 Hornet cases are virtually the same as .22WCF, the bullets are smaller at .223 vs. the .228 of .22WCF. I fire form the .22 Hornet in the rifle and use an antique Winchester hand loader press to load .228 bullets with BP, that works. Buffalo Arms is a good source of obsolete ammo, I got 20 rounds of 50-140 ammo from them for a Pedersoli Rolling Block rifle I bought locally. I found 50-90 dies on eBay for reloading them, the dies won't full length resize but do the job.

Elegant rifle and interesting comments on the Creedmoor shooting matches. I reside near what used to be the range which was open from 1873 to 1907. All that is left are abandoned buildings of what was once a vast psychiatric hospital compound and one large hospital called the Creedmoor Psychiatric Center which is still in use. The streets around the hospital are named Winchester Boulevard, Range, Musket, Pistol and Sabre Streets in homage to what was the National Rifle Associations first rifle range. Thank you and keep up the excellent videos.

Adrian, they are both good quality, but Pedersoli is better because of the bore. Uberti bores are button rifled, Pedersoli bores are broach rifled. The later is more precise, but needs more time and money.

You do an awesome job making these videos, very high quality. I love to watch them. I have to say that, in my opinion, something that made the first Creedmoor match even more amazing is that when John Bodine took the final winning shot he did it severely injured. Before his final shot, a rifle in his hand blew up( I don't remember the reason why). Mangling his hand. He believed that if he bandaged his hand/arm it would affect his accuracy so he waited until after the match to do so. Also on top of that more that half the American team was still drunk or hung-over from the night before the match when they celebrated their "Irish brothers" in honor of the competition .

If the barrel was a floating type it would cause problems, but BPC rifles barrels are not floating and it does not cause a problem. You can attend a meet and see most all of the best current long distant BPC shooters shooting from cross sticks with the barrel resting about 6 inches from the muzzle. Some of these rifles have a sweet spot where they like to be rested on the sticks, but the rifles are different than a floated barreled centerfire. If you do not think I know what I am talking about visit any BLACK POWDER CARTRIDGE RIFLE forum and ask them about resting a BPCR barrel vs. forend and the effects.
