That's a well done photo. It keeps your eye moving with pauses on focal points. Nice.

This thing was out o whack both high and low as i got it, buuut.. you know me  (7+"

..and the thing is that it had decent rifling. Thus worth the effort and trouble.

So. I was basically all over this thing. It ALL had to be corrected, one way or another.

Yeah. No correct and all of that blah blah blah...

Since though. This turned into a rather well shooting, behaving and looking 1860 really.

So yep. Happy.

You captured that shot perfect.  What kind of powder and how many grains are you using.  I've never seen powder burn that far away from the muzzle :-*

In the pic, if memory serves, it´s 30 grains of Wasag 3F and a 145 RB.
Main fudder for it is the 220 grain so called Ruger boolit though, so don´t take that RB mark to the bank.
Honestly can´t recall.
