    Well that didn't turn out well. Finally got a day without rain and went to the range. Was dialing the rifle in and seemed to be headed in the right direction. Broke the tumbler sear. Luckily I found it when I was removing the spent cap and hadn't loaded the rifle yet. Thought I had found one but...

    I will take a file with me and work it down starting with the rear sight in the middle of it's travel.

    I have added a piece to the top of the front sight and raised it about 1/4". I will take it out next week and start from scratch.

    The sight is setting completely down on the barrel now. Even if I took the spring out the sight would go no lower.

    No holes. Patches look like I could use them again. Is there a lower rear sight that will work on this gun?

    My sights. I built this rifle many years ago from a kit. These sights came on the barrel.

    Will get some pictures of the sights when I get back home. Neither of those sights pictured are like mine. My rear sight will not go any lower. It is setting on the barrel now.

    Front sight is about 1/2". Rear sight is already setting on barrel. Won't go any lower.

    So I finally caught a day when it wasn't raining and the range wasn't flooded and took out my T/C .54 cal. Put up a target at 50 yds and couldn't hit it. Put paper all around it to see where ball was hitting and found it to be hitting about a foot high. I went to adjust the rear sight down and...

    Pedersoli .50 cal results.

    I took my Pedersoli .50 out this morning and sighted it in. Ended up taking 60 gr. of Pyrodex with .015 pillow tick patch. At 50 yds I settled for an 1-1/4" group shooting from a rest. Group was about 1" high of the bullseye. Next time out I will try shooting at 100yds if my old eyes can the...
