Actually, the bull is a legitimate 6x6, though the #6 on both sides are small and one side is broken. I'm thrilled anyway.
BTW, thanks for all the congratulatory and complimentary replies.

Awesome!! Still working on bow season here, but I'll be taking my flintlock out for the rest of rifle + muzzleloader. Got a coyote with it last year when it was 10F outside, but no deer. This was the only pic I got (the rifle did much better in the cold than the camera battery).
I haven't had any moisture problems. My frizzen makes a good tight fit over the pan though; I keep it under a greased calves knee in the rain and replace the priming every 30min if it wet out (2hrs or so if it's nice). It goes bang 9 times out of 10.

Congradulations on a nice elk, job well done.
That's hunting at it's best.
I don't know anything about flintlocks, however I do know a beautiful rifle when I see one, that one fits the bill.
That's what muzzle loader hunting is all about and in my opinion in-line muzzle loaders should have to be used in regular rifle season only.
