    Not used often. Been in the family 80+ years, made late 1870s - early 1880s. 450 x 3.25" BPE Damascus Alex Henry barrels. Now shooting Nitro for Black loads with Woodleigh 350gr.
    It took a lot of time to regulate a nitro load to shoot to the sights but it's good now.

    Velocity is thrilling,but diameter does the real killing.
