This Pedersoli rifle is a faithful copy of the Remington rolling block rifle. Equipped with a 30 inch, heavy octagon barrel this rifle will be at home at a black powder silhouette competition, especially once a Creedmoor style sight is added. Overall this rifle is in fantastic condition, I personally do not think it has ever been shot other than proof loads at the factory. The only wear that can be found on the rifle appears as a small rub on the edges of the muzzle where it appears to have been resting against something.
