Hi
Here vid of a redneck cracker shootin’
Should have done in shade as got pretty hot. I was running out of gas toward the end.
I think I got some of the olive oil on frizzen that caused the two “No Sparks”.
The smooth bore musket was more prevalent as you could shoot a roundball (in this case .62) and also use as a shotgun.
Big game/defense and for supper. Easier to load than a rifle. Just put in powder and drop a ball down the barrel (with or without a patch).
This is what most folks had in the cabin. Dinner Ranch WMA Florida
