I'm waiting to hear back from GM, to see if they'll make me a Flint version of their fairly new .40cal x 15/16" x 38" Hawken drop-in caplock barrel...if they will, I'll get one, and use a double ball load to shoot a deer this season...one 90grn ball is pretty light, but a pair weighing 180grns impacting an inch or two apart at 35-50yds should get it done OK.

Let us know how your own trials turn out...
