    sighting in Pedersoli's Frontier

    I had the exact same problem. I posted about this years ago. I finally just purchased a silver LOW front sight from track of the wolf. Let me see if I can find the thread and I can "re-post" it here. IN short, that front sight on frontier is way, way, way too high

    Pedersoli Blue Ridge / Frontier lock failure

    Thanks to all. I have found at least part of the problem. Last night I loosened things up a bit in the lock, and things did work a little easier. BUT in that process I found the problem. The sear is soft, and when I say soft, it is impossible for me to describe in words just how soft...

    Pedersoli Blue Ridge / Frontier lock failure

    The lock indeed is hard to work out of the stock. You almost have to apply some rearwards pressure to the cock to get the sear to release. I will check the suggestions including taking it apart and looking for rub points. I will have to look up some of the parts that are mentioned, but that...

    Pedersoli Blue Ridge / Frontier lock failure

    Been a while since I posted, but I read the forums every week. Thanks to your help and about 12 years, I am now the proud owner of 3 TVM guns and 3 Jim Chambers guns. But I still own 2 "Cabelas Blue Ridge rifles" that I bought in 1999 and 2006. Problem: Yesterday at range my Blue...

    Please offer opinion on new rifle

    One comment that confused me now that I have thought about all the responses and I have had a cup of coffee this AM was the comment regarding the Southern Rifle and not Revolution appropriate. What about a Tennessee rifle? I think I understand the Southern Mountain effective dates, but...

    Please offer opinion on new rifle

    You guys have no idea how helpful you have been. I am kind of a novice collector and Cowboy action shooter, but I have nothing of the Revolutionary war period I also live in the Norfolk area of Virginia so this whole thing started after talking to Toni and hearing about the Va Rifle. I will...

    "Shot" first deer yesterday

    This thread was inspired by Mountain Man's "Finally" thread I have been hunting deer only a few times. I am an old 40 year old, that has been shooting all his life (Black Powder since I was 12), but never hunted deer to any great extent. I have shot at 2 up until yesterday and missed both of...

    CVA 32cal w/ revolver bullets?

    RE bore diameter, I am not sure. What I can tell you that might help is that it is a 32 cal, and that I have shot 32 cal round balls that measure .310 in diameter. I patch them with standard (I think .015) patches from Thompson Center. Lubed with bore butter. With that patch, they are nice...

    Cabelas Blue Ridge Ramrod diameter

    That size seems correct... Does that actually fit into the rings, and do you carry that under the barrel while hunting or shooting?
