Shiloh 40-82
Do you have the dimensions for the Shiloh 40-82? Is it like the 40-82 Winchester or the Crossno 40-82? What is the muzzle velocity compared to a 40-70 Sharps straight? Mori
life is good!

Re: Shiloh 40-82
I have heard that they are too accurate for the average shooter to take advantage of.
Is that true ?

Sure wish someone with some real Target Rifle savvy like you or BFD would give a 40-82 a try.

Re: Shiloh 40-82
No need, the recent Missoula Match in both silhouette and long range proved the point.
John King won silhouette and Tasha was second right behind Dave Gullo, both with 40-82's
I heard the secret to making them shoot lights out, but promptly forgot the formula. Not on purpose though.

Re: Shiloh 40-82
I'm just a small time shooter from podunkville, but the last time I shot my 40-82 in a match about 3 years ago, it was a muscle twitch from a perfect score and won the match. But Now that I got my KAL 40 cal PP mould it is about to get resurrected. If I was a silhouette shooter, that would be my go to gun.

No formula DD.
Just point the small end down range and pull the trigger. It takes care of the rest.

Re: Shiloh 40-82
The ones I have seen used have lasted about a season or until they go to Raton. They shoot lights out--until the wind blows. Shoot straight, rdnck

Things have changed a little in the past 10 years since you shot at Raton rdnck.

Indeed. Exactly no one used a 40-82 at Raton in 2014. Zeeero.Steve Rhoades wrote:Things have changed a little in the past 10 years since you shot at Raton rdnck.
I don't have equipment lists for '15 and '16, but I bet there were bunches of them in '15, and almost everyone but me and my shooting partner was using on in 2016...

Re: Shiloh 40-82
Brent,
You are right, they aren't for everyone, but then again neither are 45-90s, 45-100s, 45-110s, 44-77s, 44-90s, 40-70s, 45-70s and on and on.
BUT, good scores have been shot with all as well as really bad scores with all.
