RE: Shiloh 1877 - Don McDowell - 08-09-2020
42 rounds down the tube. Nothing spectacular, but considering the first round fired was the first sighter in the match, I am really happy with it. Saw some good promise, and am looking forward to see what happens when it's shooting rounds that were built for it, instead of another rifle.

They didn’t change the date?
RE: Shiloh 1877 - Don McDowell - 08-10-2020
Nope, either that or made a typo when he was printing those up... No matter.

Kind of like a dog finding a "Forever Home". It looks to me like you have found your "Forever Rifle". Congratulations on a superb rifle and a memorable match. Shoot straight, rdnck.

Thanks Bill, biggest problem is I already had two of those forever rifles, now I got a third, and what could very possibly be the 4th went into the production run the first of July.LOL
I think this 77 is going to really shine shooting it off the wrist rest. Hoping we get some rains here so I can go out on my range and do some more testing.
RE: Shiloh 1877 - pacecars - 08-10-2020
Nice looking rifle. Looks like it might shoot?
RE: Shiloh 1877 - Don McDowell - 08-10-2020
From what I saw out of it yesterday, yup it's going to shoot.
