    Growing up in northern maine in a guiding family. I have had the chance to harvest numerous black bear (12). With everything from a jeep to a flintlock.

    Ball size in 12bore

    Now that i have B.HAbermehl's 12 ga I use a .690 roundball and a piece of blue jeans for a patch. The lead B.J gave me was to hard to load I kept hitting myself in the head with the ram rod. He thought it was funny. I thought it hurt. :cry:

    Field dressing a deer

    I agree you dont need a big knife. I have dressed many deer on the side of the road with a pocket knife. Same with moose. smaller knives are easy to control.
