Anyone shoot the Pedersoli Bounty .50 cal pistol?

Looking at the Pedersoli Bounty .50 cal. Anyone shoot one. Or other Pedersoli single shot. Wondering about the overall gun quality,trigger and the like. Do not live where I can see one to pick it up.

I have not shot one, but looking at the picture, it appears that it would be muzzle heavy, especially for line matches.

I have the Kentucky, percussion and flintlock. Accuracy is fine, workmanship is fine, only complaint is the trigger, for line matches, a trigger job needs to be done.

I have the Charles Moore, percussion and flintlock. Again accuracy is fine, workmanship is fine and the single set trigger is great. The Charles Moore does qualify to be shot in the Kentucky pistol agg., thus you can reduce the number of pistols needed.

Only complaint on the Charles Moore is that, percussion and flnitlock, some were shipped to the U.S. with a rear sight that is to tall. They both shot 1 foot high at 25 yards.

Pedersoli corrected the problem very quickly.

In line matches, Pedersoli is the pistol of choice for sidelock pistols.

Check out this video. One guy said he built this but the guy who owns it said he "modified" it for hunting. Pay attention to detail, it's doesn't say so but it's a flintlock Bounty! I think it's pretty neat! :grin:

I have the .54 Kentucky percussion and the trigger needs a small bit of adjusting (hard pull) but accurate as anything. Good pistol! Would recommend to anyone.

Cheers, DonK

I just got a pedersoli kentucky 54 flinter yesterday. quality is excellent. the trigger on mine is around 4 pounds. I havent shot it much but I can tell it is definetly going to be a shooter. I used 40 grains FF, .15 patch, .530 ball.

 

Rogue River - Intersting video. The pistol has the same length as the Bounty and a lot of the same details as you say.
thanks for the link
