I tried paper patching for my double rifle but with a full case ( 120 gr ) of todays black powder it would not achieve the velocity needed to regulate. Swiss BP was the best but still not up to the standard of the old day powder the Pom's used.

Big old slow pre expanded bullet did some damage.

What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
Rule 5: Check your firing zone
Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
