Nice!

I need one of those with the barrel bobbed to about 20"... BTW, how long are those barrels?

[Marlin32]

HEaded that route, have some other thirsts to quench first, but it is on the list along with a 32cal for squirrels and rabbits.

I used flintlock rifles and percusion revolvers for a few years for most of my shooting and hunting and have been pleased. I put together a 12 gauge CVA double kit this winter and hope I have as good of luck as you, I'm thinking it's going to be my woodcock gun since limits are small anyhow.

Nath, I love the way you mix it all up from pumps to muzzle loaders, life never gets boring...

[Pitchy]

Way to go Nath, your the man, at peace in the world.

25" I think!

Here s one in either 12 or 20 ga WITH 20INCH BARRELS.Pedersoli calls it their cavalry shotgun.Based on an English Baker shotgun which saw some use by individuals during the civil war

[Borregos]

Nath, that is nice

[dennie]

Nate, that is very cool! That makes me interested in trying BP shotgunning. I know close to nothing about BP shotguns such as, where to get one, what brand, what gauge, how to load, etc. Perhaps someone could help get me started on this project.

gorgeous photo - is your bag a Brady or Chapman?

Very nice, Nath. How're you loading, loose powder, shot from horn & bag, with fiber wads, over-powder & -shot cards? Or those pre-assembled tube thingies?

You're trying to get me hurt aren't you? At roughly $900 for either model, the CFO beatings would not end for a very long time...

Actually from what I'm seeing the Baker version is 20ga only and has 11-1/4" tubes.

[barbarossa]

There are three versions one with 11 inch barrels and ones with 20" and 28" barrels

I make paper cartridges powder and shot ones for pheasant shooting, these decoyed birds were shot from a net blind so I just had a tin with a coulpe of pound of shot (home made 8s) and an adjustable shot measure. Powder was poured from a brass flask. OS cards were punched from my own made punch.

I believe it to be an old Brady, it was hanging up in a gun shop second hand many many years ago now!

Nothin' to them. A 12g is the simplest pace to start but just about any gauge is good. Most needed tools can be made by yourself.

Loads of good info here;

Years ago I had a 28" Pedersoli and a 10g Pedersoli.
The 12g Pedersoli,

I jug choked with a mandril I made myself,
