Could that be a reflection/ mirror image from the other side of the bore? If it is a fault then Pedersoli will want to know. I contacted them about a misaligned cylinder on a new pistol and they not only re made original my pistol but returned it in a case with full accessories. I was living in Greece at the time and went to collect it from the factory in Gardonne and was treated to a guided tour and an amazing lunch.
@@stevensheldon9271 I couldnt work out if the mirror would reverse the image or not.....just a thought. Does it shoot well? I recently bought a borescope and spoiled my day when I found out that most of my surplus rifles looked rough but still shot well......classic example of Ignorance is bliss ! Best wishes and seasons greetings from the UK.
@@marcusmason3440 Yes, it shoots very well, especially since I have discovered the secret of using "Christmas tree" bullets where the first driving band is small enough to fit into the bore. Thus the bullet "headspaces" on the second driving band, not the first. This enables the bullet to be more closely aligned coaxially with the bore due to it already being started int the bore. Cartridge Sharps shooters have known and done this for a long time - their bullets protrude out of the cartridge a considerable distance and go into the bore of the gun. I had to have a custom mold made to do this. None of the commercial Christmas Tree bullets do this with my Pedersoli 1859 Sharps.

If it was a reflection I think the spiral would go in the opposite way (to match what is at the opposite side of the bore).
