For all of you collectors, reenactors and black powder shooters:
Which carbine is more accurate to plink a gong at 300-400 yards?
The Smith is made by Pietta and is .515 cal 22 inch barrel 1:66 twist rate
The Sharps I'd like to buy is a Pedrsoli confederate .541 cal 22 inch 1:48 trist rate
I know about the great quality of pedersoli's barrels and about the sometimes poor quality control of pietta.
By the way the smith would be a lot easier to clean, it's a simple action, no possibility of jamming, also because of the chamber "split" in two is easier to remove the spent brass.
What do you think about these little ladies?
