    Steve, thanks for making the video, it’s the first time seeing someone shooting one of these. I see yours was converted from the model 1863 Springfield musket. I have one that was converted from the model 1861 and one from a model 1863 musket. They are pretty neat guns with a big bore.

    Great Googly that's cool. I wonder how that compares to 577 snider

    • @SwabbieSteve

      Pretty similar, maybe a tad less recoil.

    Hi Steve, I'm watching this again for the first time. Please tell me what you are using for brass cases.....Doc

      Hi Doc. They are lathe turned cases from Rocky Mountain Cartridge. They came with the rifle. I thinned the necks to be able to use a .595" diameter bullet. They work well.

      @@SwabbieSteve I love these big bore rifles. I own a Snider rifle and a Snider Carbine. I shoot .585 lead round balls from 24 ga, cheddite shells from the rifle very accurately. I shoot .578 cast hollow base minie bullets that I swage to .595 with a wood plug inserted into the base out of shortened altered 24 ga brass cases thru the carbine. I have always wanted a .58 centerfire rifle to load and shoot. I enjoy watching Doc's videos too.

    Gotta love a 58! Somehow it seems more impressive when being a cartridge gun. I got a 58 Needham conversion myself. Check out the video, and get a "Dimwit-style" history lesson...

      I saw your Needham video yesterday! Most interesting. Not many if us shoot. 58s. I'd like to find a .58 rimfire too :-)
