Swiss Martini "Sniper" Jagdstutzer At 300m (Not A Martini-Henry)
Single Shot Rifles
•
18m
Sorry for the clickbaity title. Here we have a gunsmith-made Swiss Jagdstutzer Martini rifle in 7.5x55 Swiss GP11. Kinda as close as you'll get to a real Martini-Henry sniper rifle, which is inexplicably contained in the game Battlefield 1 BF1 for no apparent reason...

Musket Speed Challenge
The gentlemen of the Kentucky Victorian Riflemen instigated a 5 round speed loading challenge this year and invited Chappy to participate. He of course stepped up with a French rifled musket in a manly calibre!

Snider Mad Minute
Here we have a heroic guest contribution featuring a Snider three band rifle all the way from Alberta Canada which came out of an unrelated competition, however it was too good not to share with you as part of our single shot military black powder cartridge rifle series. Huzzah for Bob!

Range test: 18mm Milbank-Amsler MkII
Chappy's tools and skills have come along a long way since his first attempt at reviving the chonky 18mm rimfire case and cartridge. Time to give it another shot. Will he succeed of will they blow up in his face?
