    Range report on my new-to-me Pedersoli RMH.

    OK, I finally was able to get to the range today since getting my new-to-me Pedersoli RMH rifle with the cracked stock I fixed. I guess you guys won’t believe me if I told you that you are looking at three different three shot groups, but you are. My very first group is the one to the left of...

    One of those rare deals that just don't happen often.

    Cowboy, I almost hesitated because as stated in my original post I wasn't sure if the sale was for just the stock or the entire rifle. I am sure glad I got there before you did. It has turned out to be one of the best deals I have fallen into in a while. :grin:

    One of those rare deals that just don't happen often.

    Recently I was in the market for a new muzzleloader so I had been looking on the internet for the best bargain. I pretty much knew what style firearm I wanted and after checking prices and looking on the auction sites for something I had narrowed my decision down to the Pedersoli Rocky Mountain...

    Early Pedersoli Hawken?

    Finally got to the range and shot the Pedersoli. Here is a four shot group at 50 yards, .490 patched round ball and 70 grains of FFFg Hogden black powder. I am very pleased with how it shoots. A bit of tweaking and I think I can do even better. [/img]

    Early Pedersoli Hawken?

    Here are my two Hawken rifles. The top one is an Allen from Santa Fe NM and the bottom one is the Pedersoli that I just purchased and re-did. [/img]

    Early Pedersoli Hawken?

    Does anyone know if Pedersoli made an earlier Hawken rifle prior to their current Rocky Mountain Hawken? I recently purchased a Pedersoli Hawken that I believe is before their current one. The only barrel markings are in this order, the serial #, the cal., Pedersoli trademark, Black Powder only...

    Hawken kits?

    The only kits I have ever done were a couple of T/C kits several tears ago. My question would be on these more custom kits are things done like the drilling and taping of the barrel for the receiving of the under rib, and are the breach plugs installed? I do not have a drill press so some of...

    About the kits

    I checked them out and there are some very nice kits. Do you know if the under rib is pre drilled for the thimbles and the barrell drilled and taped and ready to install the under rib like on T/C kits or do you have to do that on your own. Are the breach plugs installed or does that also have to...

    Hawken kits?

    SR James, Do you have or can I get more information about the kits by Don Stith. I have looked at a couple kits I found on line but they are as expensive as the Pedersoli rifle. Thanks

    Question about the Pedersoli Mountain Hawken.

    SetTrigger, Which one shoots a patched round ball the best?

    Question about the Pedersoli Mountain Hawken.

    I too prefer the 54 cal. rifle. I have an older Uberti Santa Fe Hawken that shoots great. I would like another rifle and have been looking at the Pedersoli for some time. I would like to stay as close as possible to the original style but keep the price down so was wondering how they shoot.

    Question about the Pedersoli Mountain Hawken.

    I am new here so this question may have already been asked before. Has any one shot the Pedersoli Mountain Hawken? How does it shoot and is the fit and finish better than just good? Thanks

    Hello from San Angelo, TX.

    Hello, I am new to the site. It has been awhile since I have shot black powder. I have recently had to retire so I am planning on beginning to do a lot more traditional black powder shooting than I have done recently. I have always liked traditional muzzle loading rifles and hope to be able to...
