I imagine this is a pretty common question, but I couldn't find it in the last few pages of posts on this board-
I've got 5 percussion guns now, I love BP, and am thinking of getting a flinter. Any recommendations for a starter flintlock? I mean, something reliable and fun, not too expensive, more for plinking than hunting, but sufficient for Whitetail if I wanted to try. Rifle or smoothbore? Pistol or longarm? Cost is a big factor these days, but I could set aside around $250 I guess.
Any thoughts or comments welcome.

If this has be covered recently, just point me to the thread, don't mean to waste everyone's time. Thanks.
