who else shoots traditional sidelocks?

[Flieguy]

I'm curious how many traditional muzzle loader shooters are here, I partly learned to shoot BP from the sticky on the forum.

I've got a CVA mountain rifle .50 flintlock that I built from a kit, and a TC new englander percussion .50 and love em both

Shot sidelock muzzle loaders since 1978, still have several, my favorite is a .58 Fraser River Hawken that has killed a pile of critters from partridge to moose and everything in between.
Won the odd match with it as well......

Yup, spent the last two seasons hunting with a 50 cal traditions flintlock. Hunted with a TC 54 percussion since I built it from a kit back in 1988. Even hunted grouse and rabbits with them loaded with shot.
