    • Our cover for this issue comes from Bill Mapoles and features two Sharps Model 1853 carbines with an issue sling and cleaning brush. The '53 Sharps is a favorite of Bill's and his third article on this historic firearm is featured in this issue. Bill studies the Sharps carbine and its usefulness from a rifleman's viewpoint, focusing on typical field usage and practical accuracy, as well as the rifle's role in historic events. It makes for very interesting reading and I'm sure you will agree.

    • This issue's cover comes from friend Harvey Pennington, avid participant in the Matthew Quigley Buffalo Rifle Shoot for many years. "The Quigley," as it has come to be known, is the most successful black powder cartridge rifle shoot in the world. Typically, it boasts over 600 shooters, but this year saw a drop in numbers due to inclement weather. There was, however, a hard core of riflemen that stuck it out in defiance of rain and mud; the story is a good one and you can read all about it in this issue.

      The Black Powder Cartridge News is the only journal in the world dedicated to firing black powder. Each issue focuses on the rifles, cartridges and matches that make black powder fun to shoot.  In this Issue: From the Editor by Steve...

    • About the Cover... This issue's cover features an excellent string measure target shot in the 1890s, by Judson Gould of the Andover Rifle Club in Andover, Ohio. The photograph was sent to us by good friend Mark Barnhill, who has a great appreciation of fine old target rifles, their accoutrements and history. mark shoots those rifles as well, and is regular competitor at the Canal Fulton Ramrod Club matches in Canal Fulton, Ohio. 
The image here is one of Judson Gould that Sheryll broke out of the group photo featured in the article on string measure in this issue. Mr. Gould was obviously a serious rifleman. However, I don't think any of the gentleman featured in the group photograph were anything but serious rifleman. We wish we know more about Mr. Gould, and to that end, we will be doing some more research. In the photo he appears to be holding an underhammer rifle, possibly made by H. V. Perry, and fit with a full-length scope, very likely made by R.C. Rice, a known maker in that time period and who is also in the group photo. 

The Gould string measures 7 3⁄4th inches and would be a winner in just about any string measure match going. Not many shooters could replicate this level of shooting in match conditions, even with modern equipment. 
Thanks again to Mark for a great cover shot of some excellent shooting done by one of the old 40-rod masters.  - Steve Garbe

    • Our cover for this issue comes to us from Ron Paxton, friend and associate of William "Bill" Mapoles. Bill has written an exceptional article on the real-life accuracy of the Sharps New Model 1859 rifle using linen and paper cartridges. The rifle pictured on the cover is one of 2,000 rifles specially produced for "Berdan's Sharpshooters" of Civil War fame. Bill has exploded a few myths surrounding the ammunition for the early-day Sharps and it makes for especially interesting reading.
For those of you who own an original Sharps or one of the modern-day copies, Bill's article has some very useful and practical information on making accurate ammunition. - SPG

    • There's just something about the Sharps "Big Fifty" cartridge. I think we have all gone through "Big Fifty Fever" at one time or another in our shooting careers and I have to admit to having numerous reinfections of the disease. If there is one thing the .50-90 does better than just about any other black-powder cartridge, it is putting game down for keeps. For a purely hunting cartridge, it is very hard to beat.
Mike Nesbitt agrees and has done an excellent article on the Sharp Big Fifty as well as providing us with a great cover to boot. Here's a warning: reading his write-up may induce Big Fifty Fever and, as anyone who has owned a rifle chambered for the big Sharps cartridge will tell you, there is only one cure.

    • Shooters who favor the Sharps Borchardt single shot will enjoy this issue's cover and accompanying article by Robert Saathoff on a fine, old Borchardt Long Range rifle.
Robert came into possession of this great single shot and did extensive research on the original owner and many aspects of his life, including his service in the Civil War and later in life, his purchase of this rifle. It all makes for a great article in this issue and one I'm sure you will enjoy. Saathoff also believes, as we do, that vintage rifles should be shot and he details his efforts in his article.
