Pedersoli Waadtländer Muzzleloader Rifle Caliber .45 Percussion
This model is a refined iteration inspired by the Bristlen Morges design, meticulously preserving its core technical specifications and structural framework. The primary distinction lies in the barrel configuration, engineered specifically for the .45 caliber. This barrel features seven precise rifling grooves, optimized with a twist rate of 1:48 inches (1,200 mm), ensuring superior stabilization of the projectile during flight. The overall weight has been significantly reduced, resulting in a well-balanced and highly maneuverable firearm, ideal for precision shooting and tactical handling.
