Flintlock Chuck Hunting

[Adam Helmer]

Before the hayfields get too high, I have been walking the field edges hunting chucks with my .45 T/C Hawken flintlock stoked with 75 grains of 2F BP and patched roundball. I have taken a few shots and hit a few so far. Ok, I missed a few along the way, but they gave me sport.

I take my dog along and let her see what this hunting stuff is all about. Is anyone else hunting chucks with a muzzleloader?
