Default Small Bore Flintlock SxS

I saw this contemporary build for sale and was just drawn to it. It is a .50 smoothbore, which would equal about a 36 gauge. Barrels are 30” and it weighs 5lbs 1oz. with a 14” LOP.

I have some vintage shot and powder dispensers that will work well with this gun. I am going to use 2 drams of 2f and 3/4oz of shot. That little white dispenser with the leather cord is full of 4F to prime the pans.

This should be a fun little muzzleloader. We'll see if I can pull of a double with it the next time I shoot sporting clays.
