    Hi Rossi.45, Have to say no, not a long range rifle, not bad at 50m but spreads out a bit at 100m. It is a black powder cartridge so trying 65/70 grs 3f with lead bullets, 420gr and pp ones with 3031 powder. My barrel is not as good as your one being home made, with a left hand twist 1-20" and for lead bullets only. But the pp bullets are polishing the bore and less fouling than the black powder. I would love to see how it goes on goats , pigs, deer so it will be with me on my hunts, but mainly use the 3030. For the pp bullets I`m just using paper form my printer and I made a bullet mould to cast pp bullets.
