In the 1980's I spent a fair bit of time with a Ransom machine rest and chrono testing competition pistols (Walther, Pardini, FAS, Hammerli etc.) for accuracy/reliability, mainly in .32 S&W Long, in full wad cutter form. Some of these pistols/loads shot remarkably well at 25 yards, especially when you think that there's only about 4 inches of barrel.
I've had a .36 LePage for many years but never shot it seriously and never tried to see just how accurate it could be. I think with the correct load it could be very accurate. The problem is, without any sort of systematic testing, it's all guess work.
Shooting from a sandbag rest is a starting point and the set trigger helps, but the sighting system is poor for reliable results. Is our chosen pistol/load capable of keeping them all well within the ten ring?
I no longer have access to a Ransom rest but I think I could make a mount to temporarily attach a scope to the LePage - might be interesting.
