Giz a gander!Worked like mad ALL weekend trying to get a waistcoat pattern to fit me (NOTHING fits me). It ain't easy. I ain't normal. Trying to fit me with anything is a Herculean task, to say the least. I finally have it mostly fitted.... still have to work on the back between the shoulders. Ugh.
I find the walls of the Pedersoli barrels are significantly thicker than the barrel walls of my unmentionables. Its additional weight all seems to be in the barrels.Why oh why would they have done that?
These walls are thicker than my unmentionables", but still to shallow to take rifling.Probably to use a common set of barrels to their muzzle-loading double rifle.
Unfortunately I forgot to take a pic of my target.. Considering the wind, I was pretty happy with my shooting, though I know several guys shot much better. It was a great time!Once again it has taken me a day to get my picture ready. I have the smooth bore target from a friendly competition at the range on Sunday. Nothing really to get others excited about as my target was good for 3rd place. I will admit that based on some of my previous shooting, I was pretty well pleased. Yeah, it was a 200 yard target shot at 25 yards off hand. Thank goodness that the best 5 of the 6 shots fired counted for score.

Came in first among the geriatric crowd. Tough shooting as we had lots of wind and I was glad I chose my 54 caliber rifle. That bunch of old grumpy men has been getting pretty good. Three points separated the top three shooters amongst us old guys.
@Justin.44 and @rich pierce will have to fill in other details on the other matches.
