Thanks for all your replies.
I've looked at the Cabela's site and have been scouring the house for an old copy. The previous owner had them sent here 1and maybe they've finally changed addresses. Will check the other sites.
Anyway,
We got there in time to register and stand around gawking at all the old rifles and weird duds. Since this was an intermountain MMR, most duds were trapper, explorer looking in style. My uncle was dressed up in his outfit. I didn't feel out of place as a good majority of people were in jeans, probably just showing up for the shoot alone.
The meeting place was Ft. Buenaventura park, a historic site with a small fort that was once populated by local trappers. It has since been rebuilt on the original footings and restored as a type of museum piece. It sits in the middle of a gorgeous park with a large fishing stream (kids only) and long winding walkways through the surrounding flora. REALLY nice for being in the middle of the industrial section of Ogden.
After registration was over we were split up into 2 groups to relay shoot for the turkeys. Turkeys were hung by two pieces of twine behind a cardboard partition. Shoot out any 2 strings and take home a turkey (or a cornish game hen, or even a boot as one person found out). Since my uncle had just sold his second BP rifle, we were stuck with one between the two of us. Talk about learning to reload fast!
I enjoyed the shoot and unfortunately not any turkeys. The rifle, a true flintlock, Virginia (?), circa late 17th century had some issues. The flash hole wasn't large enough, the flash burn really threw off our aim (slow burn time), and we ended up loading a no powder load in our haste to compete. Eventually we were several rounds behind which was fine by me since I got a crash course in disassembly.
Pathetically, every so often the firing line would be taken in about 10 feet more. Even towards the end, when the strings were only 20 feet off, NO turkey.
We ended up eating chinese for lunch.
Things I learned:
BP is fun.
BP is cheap to start out, expensive to shoot. Although, now that I think about it, we only shot off about 25 rounds the entire time we were there (2 hours). Ok, it's cheap to shoot.
Percussion cap is the way to go over flintlock.
Now I have to nudge the wife for a BP rifle for my birthday. We'll see how that flies.
