Craig ever heard of jack hinson ?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Hinson


Craig you should look up murphys muskets on youtubes . Im not into muzzleloaders as I am pre smokeless cartridge rifles . I would like to get a 6.5 vertelli and a 1871 mauser and 1871 rem rolling block 36" 50-70
That was the first I ever heard of the Hinson fellow .

You want a nice military gun to shoot thats easy to load for get you a nice Swedish Mauser in 6.5x55 . I have one of those now and have had a few others . And believe it or not they all shot well . Only other cartridge military I have are a couple M1 Carbines , a 6.5x50 Arisaka and a 1884 Trapdoor Artillary Model .
