Pedersoli Wuerttemberg 1857 Muzzleloader Rifle Caliber .54
Faithful reproduction of a historic military rifle, originally manufactured by the Gewehrfabrik in Oberndorf between 1857 and 1866. This infantry model, known as the 'Vereinsgewehr' of 1857, features a percussion lock mechanism and a rifle barrel chambered in 13.9 mm (.547 caliber), a design that was officially adopted by the United States of Württemberg, Baden, and the Grand Duchy of Axia during the mid-19th century.
This rifle is engineered for exceptional precision, making it a formidable competitor in the 100-meter 'Minié' shooting discipline. It is equipped with a rear sight mounted on a high square base, allowing for fine adjustments in both windage and elevation, essential for accurate ballistic performance under varying environmental conditions.
Constructed entirely from high-grade steel, this replica exemplifies meticulous craftsmanship, combining both technical and aesthetic details that demand close inspection. The robust percussion lock system and the rifled barrel are optimized for consistent ignition and projectile stability, reflecting the advanced metallurgy and mechanical design principles of the era.
Ideal for enthusiasts of historical firearms, metallic cartridge reloading, and precision shooting sports, this rifle stands as a testament to 19th-century military engineering and offers an authentic experience for collectors and marksmen alike.
