Hi guys, I'm finally getting round to buying my first muzzle loader after toying with the idea for a couple of years. (Going with a reproduction from Pedersoli).
I've decided on a smoothbore for the versatility but not sure if I want to go flint or percussion.
What are the pros and cons of each and is one more beginner friendly than the other?
I'll be taking the gun hunting for birds and deer and will also be using it for target shooting if you'd like to know.
From Pedersoli's catalogue I'll likely decide on one of these (Still open to suggestions though):
- Indian Trade Gun
- Brown Bess
- Carabinieri 1814
-1816 Harpers Ferry (Colt Conversion)
If anyone has some advice that might help my decision that would be great.
Cheers.
