Any one else hunt this year with a musket? Tried it this year for small game man what a kick! Works good on rabbit with a shot charge. Had some papers caridges just in case of big Kitty's . Gun is a 1740 potzdam. 75 Cal

if all turns out with my loyalist arms 1768, i intend to try it out on some small game this year.

i dont see why a musket wouldnt work for most critters. the onley real downside is how heavy they are.
