I know there are lots of different combotions that work. Here is one. Rifle
is a 1/2 stock I built 35 years ago. Hawken style. It is a flintlock .45 cal.
Old H&H barrel 1-60 twist. Load 90 grs. Goex FF .454 round ball, .022 Teflon
coated patch. Shot at 100 yds from sandbags. I have shot many many 50's
with this combo. One of my pet peeves is hearing each year that the modern
gun shooters always have to sight there deer rifle in. I sighted this rifle in
35 years ago. Never touched the sights again.
