Hi shot the Pedersoli Derringer Liegi a number of times yesterday. Used maximum amount of Black Mz the pistol chamber could hold and 0.454" balls. With no sights one needs to be within ten feet to hit a target one foot across. The power of the ball is pathetic, it didn't even disturb the paint on my steel targets. I could throw balls harder than the Liegi shoots them. It's possible that using 4f Swiss or T7 would do better, but bottom line, the .44 Liegi is pretty useless a firearm.In the parts diagram I see that Pedersoli offers a .36 caliber barrel for this pistol that is longer than the .44 that came with the pistol. Maybe that would be a path to better performance?Regards,Richard
How much powder?
