roundball,

Thanks for the .62 caliber smoothbore report.

All my mowing is done here on the farm, it is getting cooler and it is time for me to get around to shooting my smoothbore muzzleloaders.

I like my flintlock .50 best because that T. Mansfield barrel has nice Hawken-type sights. The smooth barrel tosses roundballs accurately out to 75 yards. It also toses an ounce of #6 chilled shot nicely to 35-40 yards. My smooth .50 is an ideal woods arm for the October seasons.
