Does anybody shoot one of these. I read an article about this caliber sometime back and it sounded really interesting. For some reason this sounds good as a deer hunting and Silhouette round. It could be loaded with BP or smokeless depending on my mood or plinking demands.
I've recently thinned the safe some and looking for something pretty and fun. I have looked at a Shiloh sporter. My practical side says get a LR gun but I have a Pedersoli that I use for that and it shoots as good as I can shoot, it but a 45-100 would probably make more sense. On the other hand LR matches within easy driving of here are almost non-existent. We use to have some matches up the road at Camp Atterbury but nothing is even scheduled this year as far as I know and not sure when or if those will be scheduled.
We have mid range matches that the 40-50 would be nice to use in and silhouette plus mild recoil. I have a 300yd range on my farm where I can shoot anytime and it would be easy on powder and lead.
OK the crux of the matter is I'm looking for a good excuse to buy another BPCR that sounds neat. Probably no enablers here.
