We comprehensively compared the capabilities
We comprehensively compared the capabilities and limitations of the iconic Prussian Dreyse bolt action Zündnadelgewehr (needle rifle) against the Austrian Lorenz rifle musket. These rifles went toe to toe in 1866 at the Battle of Königgrätz. Could the battle have turned out differently if better tactics had been used? Was the muzzleloading Lorenz truly the obsolete rifle? We explore these questions by shooting these rifles at short, medium, and long ranges with the historically correct ammunition.
