Nice! I shoot a Lyman .36 Navy and have an additional Uberti .36 Navy, boxed, with all apurtenances. My rifle is the British two-band Parker Hale Enfield .577 minie-ball used at Balaclava. I also have original Snyder bayonets for same!! It has real rifling as opposed to most lesser re-enactment copies and I (at age 70) can hold my own )in competitions...but for my one rival a Sgt. who owns a three-band Parker-Hale with a longer barrel which, at 200 yards, gives a flatter flight advantage to the typical moonbeam arc trajectory of the hollow cannelured round. The ladder sight is not used below 300 yards.
