I have been thinking for awhile about a .36 caliber flintlock. I read and have been told you can use 000 buck for round balls in it with a pillow ticking patch. Most sources I see advise to run them through a tumbler first (makes em kinda look like a golf ball, but at least you are sure they are round afterwards was what I read) ANYWAY I have been drooling over the idea ever since. pick up a bag of 000 bucks, some pillow ticking patches, and a bucket o powder and go to town. Problem is I can't justify $550+ with the wife for another gun.
Oh well maybe I will win the lottery soon.

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
