Re: My new flintlock
Good morning
Nothing like slinking through the woods, striking a spark on a frizzen and following a trail that ends in backstrap !
Looks like a fine rifle to take care of the corn crunchers in your area.

Very nice....all business. Guys who shoot the heavier stuff love that stock design.

Re: My new flintlock
Very nice... what are the actuals? Bbl length, bore dia., etc.? My ".54" is actually a .53, and uses .520 or .526 balls depending on patch thickness.

Re: My new flintlock
Great looking rifle. Hope it shoots good for you.
I have a very similar cap lock with the two wedges, all iron furniture but mine has a crescent butt and patch box. With my old eyes I've put a scope on it. It's a 50 and I shoot 90 grains ffg, poly patch and a 200 grain XTP. Kills 'em dead.
