I went on your this web site after I purchased an 1858 Remington revoving carbine at a pawn shop for a song. I did get some good info. Other reaserch on the web indicated that this gun was not much of a shooter. I beg to differ. I raised the rear sight to the third notch from the end as I had read that the gun shot very low. Using a .454 diameter ball and 25 grains of powder, my little gun will consistently shoot a 2-3 inch group at 25yrds off a rest. One does need to remember to keep the left hand behind the cylinder cupping the right hand.
I have found this to be a sweet shooting gun. And, considering the one I have had never been fired, in emaculate condition, and I only paid $275 I feel very fortunate.
