Christian Springs Rifle

<< < (20/20)

Eric Krewson:
My 12ga fowler loaded up with 100gr of 1F and a .690 ball weighing close 500 gr really jars me, enough to make me flinch after a few shots. I bought one of those PAST recoil pads (the thickest one) and don't even feel my guns recoil now.

mullet:
The Brown Bess I now have shooting a .715 round ball with a 100 grains of 3F left a nice bruise.

Mike Yancey:
I've been working up this load with a conical bullet because you can't use a round ball in Africa. It would have been way easier to get a round ball load worked up but I really wanted the energy of the bullet over the ball. This barrel is also able to shoot a bullet.
