It was raining on me off and on, but luckily a 60 grain charge of FFFg produced fairly tight groups. I only ran a patch through it twice and the consistency far surpassed my expectations. I shot the group I am pictured with at 45 yards and it was the first group I have ever shot with a flintlock rifle. I ran a fouling shot prior to shooting the group, and I was very pleased with that group. I moved back to 100 yards and shot a 3 shot group to round out the day. 1.5" at 100 is something I never thought possible. Thank you all for unknowingly giving me advice through this process. I am beyond pleased with the performance so far.
