first 2 squirrels for the 32 flinter!!

[TrevorAaron]

i had a terrible hunt with silent sniper as he told the story so this week end i got out the 32 and decided to try until i fail. first morning i went out and there was a fox squirrewl at 20 yards and i shot and missed them cleaned reloaded and tryed for the secound shot and whack the squirrel fell like a rock with a head shot. (hunting with flintlocks is super challenging but also a blast. then later that day i was walking through the woods and i heard a noise and i look up to see a big ground hog at 15 yards and i clocked it in the heart....then today i saw squirrel jumping from tree to mtree and loaded up and went after it. well after 5 shots i was getting sick of missing but my 6th shot was a lung shot at 25 yards. so far i think i havr missed around 6 squirrels but its still a blast

I suppose my .50 will blow a squirrel into next week? They got little heads to always hit it.



Oh, and nice shot on yer squirrels.

i used to use my 50 cal new englander with 50 grains of ffg with a .490 round ball and it really didnt tear them up to much...super over kill though.
