How you guys do it with flintlocks, I don't know. Must be many more misses than hits! Michigan allows in-lines, and I have 2 a H&R and a TC. Both are fast firing, one uses #11, other 209 primers.

When I was doing my training for 4-H shooting sports a while back, we had TC sidelocks - they were troublesome on ignition. So I can only imagine what you guys who have to use flintlocks must go through. As far as Muzzle loading season, only been out a couple times.

Gotta be a real heavy duty sportsman to appreciate muzzle season here. I enjoy shooting muzzle loaders, but!
