Remington Model 1858 accuracy testing

[Sharpie44]

Took my revolver out to the range and decided to do a video showing the accuracy of these cap and ball revolvers. I get a lot of manure from people at the range and online when I bring this gun out or show it in a video. People seem to think that these are inaccurate, unsafe, a pain to shoot. I'm probably not going to change anyone's mind but I thought I would give it a shot.

I just started shooting one of these and it is working well for me. I sure would not want to be the target! I have to skip a 10 minute shooting cycle once in awhile to talk about the gun with a stranger that stops by while I am getting ready to reload. They are fun to shoot!
