Boil the mould in water. First time let it cool and any significant quantity of wax will float and set to be scooped off. Second time with detergent.

When this is prime time TV locally there is a place for the cost of quality.

How far do you need to dismantle it?
The action will just drop out if you remove the large screw on the right. There is a picture of a dismantled Mk II near the bottom of this page...

Shot some of these yesterday at 300yds with a gusty 8 o'clock wind. Given my abilities with aperture sights and I've only put about 100 rounds through the rifle I was very pleased. The white V bull...

They are certainly much more accurate than I am. My MkV International has the original factory test group of 0.56" at 100 yds.

I appreciate your experience here Lead Pot. There also seems to be a big variance in the suggested loads published for this cartridge.
Max loads with 5744 or Lovex D060 (same as 5744)

I'm just starting with PP 45/70 in a Pedersoli Sharps. I've sized .458 soft 545gr Postell bullets to .452 (.002 over bore size) using a LEE sizer. They are then patched with green music ruled printer...

Finally got to shoot these things. Some at 300 yds and the rest at 600. Overall I was pleased. My technique with the aperture sights is rather suspect but by the end they were holding elevation well...

As a Brit I didn't know of your Memorial Day, we have our own remembrance days. It made me wonder if Memorial Day was celebrated at Brookwood cemetery not far from me which has the only WW1 US...

I haven't gone away. I've made a further batch which I hope takes on board everyone's comments. Haven't been able to get to the range at a suitable distance and I couldn't miss a day like this

I found the 12 in version of this cheap. http://tinyurl.com/jjysnle

Good clean, precise cuts.

I managed to get the cut edges to butt pretty well. It was easier towards the ogive and less so at the base because of the difference in diameter. I made the patch shorter rather than longer. I then...

I can find some wax.

I wasn't sure about the differences in height. I think I'll make up a guide.

I did shoot a few yesterday to get some sort of zero and chronograph them. Although they all chambered I think the...

Ill give that a try. Thanks

Where up the ogive would be your preference?

The paper is .003 dry thickness.

The patches were wrapped wet. Finished dry diameter over the driving bands .462. Immediately in front before the ogive its .458.

The freebore (the section...

First effort paper patching. Any comments welcome.

This is for my Pedersoli Sharps 45/70. I don't cast so I'm stuck with commercial bullets. These are soft lead 535gr Postells and...

Red deer are commonly seen on the 1000yd range at Bisley,UK and completely ignore the shooting over their heads. They are in a protected area and breeding well. The danger area is shared with the...

Thanks for the comments everyone. I had a nagging doubt about the barrel as it is thinner and shorter than the other target models. Maybe this isn't the best one to get.

Thanks rfd.

I'm not ruling out back powder but small steps initially. It already feels like a big jump from .223 and 6.5x47.

Hi
I have the possibility of buying a secondhand Pedersoli Creedmore #2 and 6x Malcolm Scope. This would be my first rifle of this type for target shooting probably to 600yds and potentially...
