Black powder loaded in brass shells, 10 gauge gun, and below freezing temperatures..... a perfect combination.

Looks like someone braved the chill in New England and went to Addieville perhaps??

Congrats on a nice gun.

Hi Frank, I didn't really notice the cold so yes it was a perfect combination.

I was actually shooting at Peace Dale Shooting Preserve in South Kingstown. It's only 10 minutes from my house.

Addevielle is about 40 minutes away from me and make it up there a handful of times a year for clays. It would be great to get a few PGCA members together for a black powder preserve hunt there.
