    32 accuracy at 50yds,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

    no offence sir, but anything can shoot at 25 yds. as far as my ability to shoot here is what i can do offhand at 50yds. 3 shots with a 54 flintlock, so i can shoot a little. the only thing i can attribute the poor accuracy for is either the home cast ball or the barrel wedge causing a bedding...

    32 accuracy at 50yds,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

    the problem with shooting 25yds anything is outstanding. that really tells you nothing. that is one reason i didn't try it at 25 i just figured it would group well. you need to be at least 40yds to get a good read on what it is doing.
