I was just bequeathed a .20 ga. flintlock fowler (nice custom replica), and was thinking about shooting a turkey with it. I have a place where I can use lead shot, and was wondering about lead shot itself. I want to use #4 lead shot, and the supplier that has it advertises it as having a 2% antimony content in it. The antimony is just for keeping a uniform hardness in the pellets, right? This lead shot should be ok to use in the fowler, right? I guess those are my concerns right now, if they are concerns at all. I'd sure appreciate any comments regarding my questions.
Thanks for any potential help using the old flinter safely.
