I took my Deeley-Edge-Metford out for a play at the end of October, shooting at 600 yards. This link is to my blog where I published a short note on progress with the rifle.

Welcome to the forum and note your web site.

Used to be a member of MLAGB when I was into BP in the 70s with my Remington 44....would that have been a New Model Army?

Same revolver I started with c1989. I was heavily into .22 3-position and 10m air rifle, and black powder pistol shooting was a great reminder of the fact shooting is fun. I got tired of the merry-go-round of .22 and air rifle matches and moved to classics eventually.... then got back on the ride and started shooting primarily muzzle loading matches. A great challenge and very enjoyable.

Keeping too busy as usual. Just got the proofs of the MLAGBs 'Black Powder' magazine for checking before printing - so that's my next task! :)
