These rifles quickly earned a reputation for precision and reliability during the golden age of target shooting. By the late 1800s, competitive long-range rifle shooting became a widely-followed sport in the United States, with prestigious events such as the United States National Match in Creedmore, New York, showcasing the capabilities of High Wall rifles.
