Bullets used in muzzle loading firearms are exclusively built using non alloyed, soft lead. A vast selection of bullets are available, depending on the type of hunting or shooting we want to practice

The locks and hammers of the Pedersoli Kodiak are case hardened with well contrasted colors and mechanically engraved
The Pedersoli Kodiak Mark VI rifle, among the best in the muzzle loading universe, to hunt game such as wild boar

The front sight is fixed, with a brass dot mounted on a short base

The double rear sight is best suited for changing from either two shooting distances or two different bullet weights

The stock is made of nicely grained european walnut, oil finished with a steel butt

Before shooting with a muzzle loader, a cap needs to be fired in each nipple to clean it from grime and oil

100 grains of Swiss No. 3 are needed to propel the .50 caliber bullet of the Pedersoli Kodiak

The gun has been tested with conical and ogival bullets, each a 450 and 550 grainer respectively

Shooting with the Pedersoli Kodiak
Bruno Circi
Immediately after the shot, the smoke cloud can completely hide the target. In a hunting situation, this has to be taken into account
Bruno Circi
Shouldering the Pedersoli Kodiak is immediate and natural, although the weight distribution makes it muzzle heavy
Bruno Circi
Recoil is stout and not at all sharp, although it can be substantial with the 550 gr. bullet. In the picture, a 450 grain bullet is used
Franco Palamaro
50 meters accuracy, shooting from the shoulder, is more than enough for hunting purposes. Note how the group is actually made of two patterns, each from one of the barrels, separated by 10cm
