    I have heard that in order to be in maximal accuracy from a Snider you have to have the action bored out and the barrel shank threaded almost up to the block.Since you are going to put a new barrel on it I would look into this.

    Half the case sits in the action and the first half the barrel on a Snider.This is another reason why they can start chucking flyers after a few rounds.

    I shot my two a hell of a lot over the years.I have five different molds and a pile of brass.

    They are fun guns in original form if you don't expect to much from them.
