Great day with my flintlock!
Its been a while since I've shot my Woodsman flinter so I took it out to 50 yards and tried 2 different patches.
70gr Olde Eynsford 2fg
.018 & .020 patches lubed with buckskinners lube
4fg goex pan powder
50 yards
This is the first 3 shots with the .020 patches ( pre cut )
Next up I switched to .018" pillow tick and cut at the muzzle. Still not bad at all!

That ain't too shabby for a youngin! Me thinks I'm gonna break out the .54 on Friday if it ain't rainin and get her sighted in for our primitive season. I have the .50 Pedersoli good to go but I want to try the .54 first. I had to switch out the front sight Barry gave me because with it I had to elevate the rear sight so high that it seemed to only be hanging on by a couple threads.
If my old eyes group them twice that good at 50 yards I'll be happy.
