Has anyone used a 36 caliber black powder replica pistol (Sold by Cabelas) for small game hunting? I would like to go afield with one of the replica Colt Army models, like the 1851 or 1861 Navy models. Are they accurate enough to take squirrels or rabbits out to 30-40 yards? I would like to know before I plunk down the cash.

My evil twin suggested carrying a 44 cal version for hog hunting here in Florida, but I think I would still rather use my 8mm Mauser. But, if I was hunting with my muzzleloader, it might be nice to keep a 44 cal handy in case of needing a second shot up close.
