Nessmuk:
Joe, your probably not going to like me for this... but can we compete in in different   calibers? I.E. Flintlock  50 cal or Flintlock . 40 cal or Caplock .45 cal or Caplock . 36 cal. As long as you complete the whole  course fire for each Lock/caliber?

There are no caliber restrictions on flint or cap locks... However, you must finish the course of fire with what you start with (Flintlock or Caplock) to qualify in the individual "flint or Cap" lock category for which you enter.

I'm guessing what you are asking is, example;
"if you start with a .40 cal Flintlock - can you finish with a .50 caliber flintlock?" (I don't see why not)...

Same holds true for the Caplock...

Personally I don't know how that would work out for a person with fit and feel of changing up of rifles in the middle of the shooting - but the goal is to achieve the goal needed from each range, in each rifle class (flint & cap).

Nessmuk:
What I was asking was can you get listed on the roster multiple times  For Example;

NESSMUK Caplock .45 Cal 2020
NESSMUK Caplock .36 Cal 2020
NESSMUK Flintlock .50 Cal 2020

after seeing how long and labor intensive this might become, I withdraw the Question/comment.
