Most of my target rifles are huge underhammer bench guns, weighing 30-80 lbs+. I do own a couple smaller inline guns. Posted for your interest

First, one of my favorite guns. It was the rifle that got me into this hobby and my first ml rifle. I had a ruger old army prior to this as my very first bp gun. This is one of a couple guns built by Fred Sinclair of Sinclair arms. It is a .50, with Jewell trigger, 1" across the flats, redfield olympic front and rear and it can shoot. That is 5 at 100 yards. Just as good as my big guns

Second, I have not shot yet, nor has anyone. Built by 10- ring precision, 54 caliber, 1.25" across flats, false muzzle, Wilkes rear sight, redfield front. Also uses a sealed ignition

Nice. Too bad the .54 is right handed!
