Re: Hunting photo time again.
Thanks I thought the woodcocks I hunted in Michigan growing up was a bigger bird. They went good with a couple of Ruffed grouse and a rabbit or two.

Re: Reliability of Flintlocks versus Percussion in 1840s
Thanks, that is why I had my long rifle made as a cap lock. My friend where I lived in Tenn. was a very talented rifle maker.
It was built in 1968 with a G. R. Douglas barrel 42 inches it is much better in brushy woods.

My grandson has a standard Henry and it shot as smooth as my 1917 Model 92 32wcf right out of the box. That thing is probably as accurate as my old Remington 551-A bought new in 1954.
