The CSA used the English made Whitworths for sniper rifles, and they were used for 1000 yard TGT Matches in GB and are still used today with accuracy comparable to modern rifles...
There is an Austrian Gunmaker at Ferlach that still makes these rifles...Carl Heinz Klein...
My rifle is too fancy to be a CW sniper, and .36 is too small of a caliber...but ones similar were used to great effect by the Union
