It was accurate by the standards of the day too, equipped as it was with a graduated ladder rear sight. Army tests showed it could keep 100 percent of its shots inside a 25-inch circle at 500 yards and a 48-inch circle at 1,000. --I find that hard to believe---

Weapons during the civil war were very accurate. I have a repro enfield 3 band rifled musket and it is dead on accurate.
