    I will check my copy of Heer's "Der Neue Stockel" list of German gunsmiths from that time period, later today.

    Deepest darkest blue I've ever seen

    It is easy to over rub it and when you do you get thin spots.. But, it is a spectacular blue!

    Hawken accuracy problem

    It may be that the heavier load you are using is blowing the patch out. If so, then it cannot grip the rifling properly. The clue to this will be that the spent patch is really shredded. A good spent patch will only have the outside edges somewhat frayed. Pick up a shot patch if you can...

    Comfort and fit is everything. I prefer a .54 for deer. Or a .58 musket lol

    Jack Garner Signed Flinter

    The rifle will be fine for deer. I think Jack is a member on here, too. I have several friends with his guns and they love them.
