Underdog Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 What a great weekend weather wise, had a great quiet walk in the autumn sun and enjoyed the changing colours. Not so many pheasants about this year but enough to keep me interested in visiting another day. Got a squirrel and a nice young rabbit and fancy frying it in bread crumbs. I got good crisp fast ignition, instant in fact. The rabbit was a good 30yds. U. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underdog Posted October 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 (edited) Ooh I do like that gun, tell us a bit more about it?The gun is made by Pedersoli.It is their interpretation of the gun traded by the British to the north American Indian tribes in the 1700-1800's. This one is .629" bore (20g). I loaded it with an ounce plus of #6 and a little less powder in the same measure first. Actually, today in a moment of complete muppetry I rammed a wad down without powder! Fortunately I had my srew that fits on the rammer and was able to remove it and start over. U.

They are the tails of flintlock victims, quite possibly the only foxes shot on these islands in the past year from a flintlock! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
