Amazing what a difference 48 hours and a change in weather can make…after last night’s rain, the heat and humidity this morning was like a steam bath…and birds were definitely not flying like they were Saturday morning. Only got 8 shots, missed 2, put down 6, couldn’t find 1, brought out 5. But that was enough to add a “notch” to “The Settler”…my .20ga Early Virginia. She’s now taken Squirrels, a nice 10 pointer + Does, a Turkey, and Doves. No question a .20ga Flintlock is a very versatile hunting gun. The black powder Dove load I tried today was: 70grn measure of Goex 3F black powder 1/2” Circle Fly lubed cushion wad (bare bore - no shot cup) 90grn measure of #7.5s 2 Circle Fly over shot cards Flintlock Rifles & Smoothbores Hunt Like The Settlers | ||

Good shooting RB. Them doves would be good marinated in coca cola an then grilled with some spicy bbq sauce Nothing beats the feel of a handmade southern iron mounted flintlock on a crisp frosty morning | |||
