My investarms gemmer

First kit I’ve ever done. Still need to install the sights. But I really enjoyed this. Hope to get the trifecta (antelope,deer,elk) with it this year.

Nice

Very nice! What caliber did you choose?

Good lookin’ shooting iron.

54. Went to the range today. 50 yards with 530 balls, .015 cabelas lubed patches, goex 27
70 gr - 1.85’
80 - 1.81
90 - 2.36
100 - 1.53
All 3 shot groups. Cleaned after the first six. Patches looked great. I have some tweaking to do, but really like it.

Nice rifle. If it loads easily try heavier patches and also .535 balls. These rifles will flat shoot when you get a good and tight patched ball in the charge range it likes.

 

[montanas]

Well, I attempted 535 balls with the same patch and could not get it started. Part of the tweaking will be 530 with .018 pillow ticking.
Also, I really like the trigger. No creep after set. I expected a bad one according to some comments I’ve seen.

Different rifle but the 54-mountain rifle likes 80grs. 3 f - 530 ball - 15 thousand patch lubed with a mixture of bee's wax, Crisco and olive oil.

Beautiful figure in the stock. When I finish building my flintlock the Gemmer is next.

Nice looking rifle and it's a shooter! Well done.
