Yes it is.... before purchase I looked at some national matches and noted how well these rifles placed....the workmanship is as good as anything produced in the States.....and more competitively priced.
I particularly like the head space for larger weight rounds.

The Vernier sight is from Lee Shaver tho...not a Pedersoli.

BTW....at the Ben Avery Phoenix range there is a yearly 'Quigley shoot' for black powder single shot rifles.....and, my friend and saddle maker Jerry Croft made the saddle in the movie and the scabbard for the Sharps....Tom Selleck invited him to LA for the Movies opening and remained a friend...the old style saddles he rides in his westerns are/were made by Jerry...he made me a fine one too (1987) and that's how we became friends. Happy Trails JJ.
