I've shot muzzle loaders for years and got interested the old cartridge rifles, but have only shot them locally.  Recently a friend sent me a notice about a 22 silhouette shoot and it interested me.  But I don't have a suitable rifle.  So the search begins, and I started by joining the ASSRA.
I’ve seen several W.W. Greenen’s and I like their looks.  BUT they don’t have exposed hammers which was a requirement in the notice which also says BPCRO rules apply.  Apparently the ASSRA follows the NRA rules for BPCR and they allow Peabody rifles.  Now my research, so far, indicates that Greenen used modified Martini actions which were similar to Peabody.  Following my own rule that the only dumb question is the one that isn't asked -  So are Greenen’s allowed?

Oh, fudge.  It is Greener.  I can't read my own writing.  Thank you for the information, Oneatatime.  And the search continues 

you might consider a 1885 Winder or Stevens 414, if you like the looks of  muzzle loader.  lots of other good choices too. My model 37 is a turn bolt gun, so no go.

W, Richard shotguns are not cheap imitations of Westley Richards. W. Richards was a big retailer in Liverpool and sold guns mostly made by the Birmingham trade----some not so good, but some very good indeed.
