Keep in mind that I am a "marksman" and if I can't hit my mark I won't take the shot. I am only interested in shooting round ball I. A traditional flinter, not an online, etc. Most ranges around here (unless you hunt a pipeline or high line) are less than 75 yards, although I guess some might be shooting across a cow pasture as well. I was brought up a shotgunner, learned early to be a rifleman, and I am not interested in bp so that I can turn around and try to magnumize it, add a jacketed pistol bullet, etc. I want to cast my own round ball, shoot my own round ball, and bring home meat. I am also not a sport hunter and I dang sure don't subscribe to the spray and pray method of hunting.

Thanks for the info..

Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun. - Ecclesiastes 8:15 KJV

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
