Colonial flintlock at 50 yds off hand

Nice day after lots of rain. 64F.

I don't think I’ll mess with the sights. Seems ok.

I have it dialed in. Was reaching to 130 yds this morning hitting 8” steel targets. Super nice rifle.

Once again, I am super impressed. Not sure I can see a 8" anything at 130 yards.

Thanks. I named my new rifle. That’s Blackfoot for timber wolf.

And that’s just grain not a crack… :)

Nice engraving and yes, that grain sure looks like a crack. Glad it’s not.

That's a really nice rifle, and good stuff matters, but it's still the indian, so kudos to you.

I was never into Black Powder, but a friend of mine in VA was a State Champ for years.
My son dated his daughter. I told my son to be Berry Berry Careful.
Very nice shooting, and a beautiful Rifle.
I've always liked the looks of the guns, long guns and handguns, just never got into the shooting of them.
Great stuff.
You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.
I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.
