Title: Another buck 18th century style
Post by: Tom Black on November 17, 2011, 05:38:02 PM
This morning I popped this 8 pointer with my 54 calibre South Carolina style flintlock at about 30 steps.  Load was 80 grains FFFG Goex, a homemade .530" ball wrapped in medium weight Irish linen and lubed with pure bear grease.  A wee bit of FFFG in the pan did the trick.  He had a 21" spread and only weighed 153 pounds hog dressed.
