As much as I love my traditional-looking cowboy guns, this Pedersoli Boarbuster Mark II 45-70 is easily near the top my all-time-favorite guns list.
The Pedersoli Boarbuster Mark II is quite popular in Europe, but there's only a handful on this side of the planet.
This is a premium levergun at a premium price. If you would like to join the small, exclusive club of Boarbuster Mark II owners on this side of the world, you'll have to Contact Pedersoli's retail store here in the USA, @italianfirearmsgroup , in Amarillo, Texas.
It's an elk slayer and I am happy to say I had just a little influence in the design of it.

Cue the Rio Bravo soundtrack..."My Rifle, Pony, and Me".
This weeks #IFGFanFriday is from @theadventurecowboy featuring the Lever Action Boarbuster Mark II
The Mark II is the latest version of the Boarbuster model, featuring a modern line and classic good looks.
The solid feel and the easy handling typical of the lever action models, thanks to the short length of the barrel (19") along with the American Walnut SoftTouch covered stock and adjustable comb makes this rifle a winning choice. The ballistic precision and the stopping power of the PMG broached barrel available in the 45-70 and 444Marlin calibers, makes this rifle ideal for hunting. #davidepedersoli #leveraction #huntingrifle #madeinitaly #italianfirearmsgroup #cowboyshooting #cowboyactionshooting

With most high-dollar, collectible, heirloom-quality rifles, one tends to handle them with a little extra care to avoid any scratches or dings that might mar the beautiful finish.
Well, this rifle is the exception to that rule. This rifle is still a high-dollar, collectible, heirloom rifle, but this is a gun designed to be USED and used hard.
I am testing out the Pedersoli Boarbuster Mark II this hunting season in the mountains of Montana, and I am using the snot out of it. Between lots of range time and packing it in rough, rocky, brushy terrain, as well as, in a saddle scabbard, this gun is quickly becoming one of my favorites.
Yes, it is different than the classic, traditional, western rifles, but it is supposed to be. This rifle is designed for sportsmen to use hard in nasty conditions. It does this well, and it does it in an 1886 action, the strongest tube-fed lever action ever made...and those are not mass-produced anymore.

Pedersoli Boarbuster Mark II in 45-70.
I have some Hornady LeverEvolution 250gr. Monoflex ammo that I really want to kill an elk with, but up to now, I have been shooting the LeverEvolution 325gr. rounds. So, I headed back to the range to make some sight adjustments and see if the 250gr. non-lead bullet would shoot decent in this Pedersoli Boarbuster Mark II.
I put up an old target at 100 yards and put a couple rounds into it to see how much higher the 250gr Monoflex shot than the 325gr. FTX jacketed lead bullets. The lighter bullets hit about 4.5 inches high, so I made the adjustments to the open sights, and put up a fresh target.
I put 3 rounds into the fresh target fairly rapidly, and the target pictured is the result. The Boarbuster Mark II is ready to kill an elk.

The Pedersoli Boarbuster MK II really shines in its element...er..um...really shines in the elements.
Silly puns aside, one of my favorite features about this rifle is its weather resistance. I have had this gun out hunting in rain, sleet, snow, freezing rain, and even some mud (unfortunate slip) without any issues whatsoever.
With a little clean off and some oil when I get home, I have no doubt that this rifle could take years of this use and still look and function perfectly.
One thing to keep in mind with this gun, or any other gun that has a threaded muzzle, is that it is very important to take of the threaded cover and clean/oil the threads. If the threads were cut post-bluing/cerakoting, the bare metal in the threads is more susceptible to rust if it gets wet.

Still putting in the work and the miles hunting for elk.
So far though, it's mainly been taking this rifle on steep hikes and horseback rides. I hope it appreciates all the effort. 😂😉

Singing..."These are a few of my favorite things..." A fine horse, an awesome rifle, a well-built stock saddle, and a well-used catch rope.
