Teamed with special tang-mounted adjustable sights, such as the Creedmoor, the .45-70 Sharps became a hard-hitting long-range weapon capable of accurately striking targets up to 1,000 yards downrange. That made the 1874 Sharps ideal for hunting buffalo and other large game.
The 30-inch barrel on the Pedersoli 1874 Sharps rifle provides an extended sight radius, which contributes to improved accuracy and precision at longer distances. The longer barrel length also helps maximize the velocity and energy of the .45-70 cartridge.
