New to me 1860
« on: April 02, 2020, 11:36:52 PM »
Just got my "new" 56-56 shooting, and it looks very promising.  Picture is 5 shots at 50 yards from the seated position. Load was a Rapine bullet, (sized to my bore) ahead of 2.2 cc of 777 FF.

Nice info and thanks:

Maybe me, but cannot find where you posted serial number or close photo's.

If haven't, please.
Thanks,

SN 37536, might have been issued to L or M Co, 2nd NY Vol Cavalry in 1865.  Thanks to two flints for all the questions leading up to this purchase.
