Yes, I was asking about shooting the same ammunition in a 22-inch bolt action and a 26-inch Ruger 1-B, or a 28-inch 1885 High Wall.
But you are right - the reality is both single shots are so strong, that some are tempted to stoke them up with hotter loads than they might dare in their bolt action rifles. So they are getting higher velocities from higher pressures, too. As long as they are not sacrificing accuracy, I am interested in hearing all of it.
I think most single shot shooters, even hunters, are more into oddball calibers, antique cartridges, even cast bullets and black powder, because they like the way the rifles look and work more than anything else.
