Some comparative observations (http://researchpressuk.wordpress.com/2013/12/15/creedmoor-rifles-1873/) on muzzle and breech loading rifles used in the first NRA Rifle meeting at Creedmoor in 1873 from a contemporary newspaper report.

Thanks for posting this. I for one am hesitant to admit these new breech loaders have merit, but evidently some do.

Nobade there are those of us that believe smokless powder is just a passing fad also.
