I have a thing for single shot rifles and have acquired a few over the years. I only have two examples of the Martini system and I wish I had bought more before they got so pricey. There still some good $300 Martinis out there biut now they are priced at $800.
Anyway, I have two at extreme ends of caliber range. A 22 target rifle and a 45/70 custom job. The wood on the 22 was horrible so I refinished it.
Here's a target shot at 100 yards with the 45/70. Sights were actually centered but the wind was blowing so hard that day it pushed those big 'ol slugs about 3". At 50 yards it will cut cloverleaf groups with any load including 250 grain bullets sized .454" for the 45 Colt.
