Small game caliber
Scott Record:
I'm leaning strongly to the .32. I don't know that the .36 would do anything the .32 wouldn't and the scout seems like a good value.
amateurhour:
scout? is that a different model from the Crockett?
Traditions also makes a Deerhunter in .32 cal. It's basically a hawken knock off with the .50cal barrel but its .32. It's supposedly a little heavy though, but it's like $244. It's out of stock on EVERY website. I e-mailed Traditions and they said they still make it, but they don't list it on their site either so I think it's a language barrier since they're in Europe. : (
Scott Record:
Yes it is different...sorry. I meant crocket. The Pedersoli Scout is a fine looking .32 caliber flint lock. It's $775 though. I don't need to pick it up as it might come home with me.
amateurhour:
awesome!
I won't post the link here but there's a guy that goes by 22 reloader that sells kits to reload 22 ammo and about a year ago he started cnc machining the old "tap a cap" so that you can take either a custom armstrong mix or get the cap gun roll caps and an aluminum can and make your own percussion caps.
You can get the german made roll caps for like $20 per thousand so you could stock up and definitely have as easy a time shooting percussion as flintlock.
