Whats your favorite flintlock??
I sorta have 2 now favorites ! ;D
I have my ole TC PA Hunter that got me into MLing years ago. It came with a 1-66 twist barrel & a great rb shooter. I have since bot a Green Mountain 1-28 bbl for it to shoot sabots etc. Its a dual purpose gun now for sure!
This past year i bot an RMC Accusporter 1-28 bbl. Nice gun. Comes with L&R lock, FO sights, removable breech plug and is a real shooter. Not too traditional but a mean huntin machine.
One always needs a back-up! ;D

The one that goes boom when I pull the trigger!! ;D My favorite is my custom gun made by Don Yerks. Its a 54 cal Lancaster style sporting a 44" swamped Rice barrel and a Large Delux Siler Lock made by Jim Chambers. Her name is "Elisabeth" after my wifes middle name. Don runs Kennedy Firearms in Williamsport PA. www.milrunmuzzleloaders.com

I have a TC Firestorm flinter in 50 cal.
I have had great success shooting Hornady XTP 240 grain sabots over 80 grains of 777.
I am thinking about switching to powerbelts and uping the charge to 90 grains for this year.

Wife got me a Pa Hunter when they first came out and been doing well for me ever since. Tried some powerbelts last week and worked ok, now going to try them with a charge of 3f goex.
