I been a muzzle loader shooter many years. Have also experience as a military historical re-enactor. When i shoot black powder rifles or muskets i use a standard military load of 55 grains of 2F black powder. I make my ammo as pre-rolled paper cartridges so that i don't have to carry a powder horn ,lol. I just tear open a cartridge, pour a super tiny amount into the frizzen and then load the rest down the barrel, followed with the patched ball. I carry all my pre made ammo in a rev war or civil war style cartridge box on a waist belt.

I have one of these. The inletting was not done correctly so the action was hanging up on the inside. Had to carve that out. Then the spring for the frozen was so hard that it would not work the frizzen . I finally got it to work. Very tiny weak little locks on these rifles. Not a comfortable stock either. But a challenge to keep it working and it is fun for that alone.

Very beautiful rifle sir!

Good Luck, It's alot of fun!!

I keep thinking about getting a kit and building blackpowder guns.

👍👍

ATF may not consider it a firearm,but my state does.

Warning, You get what you pay for and with this brand of flintlock all you get is looks and problems, You cant skimp on a flintlock and expect good results!
