A few years back (about 20-25) I was coming back home to NC after a meeting in Atlanta...I had my Bob Watts .45 flinter in the trunk and decided to stop at a shooting range on the way home, I had bought some new powder and wanted to make sure my gun shot it OK....I made a target consisting of a 1 inch square on a piece of paper, I posted down range and was walking back to the shooting shelter when a truck load of guys pulled up with their deer rifles....These guys got out and started making comments about my "flintrock", "flinchrock", "musket" etc....I took a standing rest on one of the shelter poles and touched "Sweetheart" off....From 50 yards away it looked as if I missed....One of the guys walked down range and hollered back...."That SOB put a hole right in the middle"...Sure enough I couldn't have placed it any truer...He bought my target back, I said "Looks like she's good to go"....Packed up my stuff and left.....I wouldn't have shot another round in front of them for
50 bucks.
