Depends on the Pedersoli a lot of their rifles are very reasonable for the high quality you get. They are a lot cheaper as a kit to and their kits come with finished actions, generally have blued barrels, fitted locks, triggers, and barrels. They make a Jaeger rifle in 54 caliber which if you squint and swap out the steel furniture for brass could pass as a Baker rifle if you really tried. I mean the British did base their Baker off the German Jaeger rifle. Their Scout rifle is is similar in length and style to the Baker rifle, just smaller calibers 32, 45, and 50 calibers. I used to think Pedersoli's were insanely expensive and some do get very expensive but they have a wide list of options in their range. Their Kentucky and Penn rifles, as kits anyhow, are very reasonable and don't take long to build. Their trade gun as a kit is $1000, good luck finding another smooth bore kit for that kind of money and quality. Nothing against Kibler, I like their kits. However if you wanted to get a Kibler kit that would be equivalent to a Pedersoli kit you will spend a lot more money when compared to a similar Pedersoli product, at least for a 32, 45, or 50 cal rifle. Their 54 cal rifles do cost a bit more even as a kit. I think their Jaeger rifle at Dixie Gun works is like $1200 as a kit. Would have to check their site.
