What caliber and style for you?

[SciAggie]

In Colorado, climbing up and down hunting elk, I’d take my .62 Yeager. It’s short, light, points well, and packs a punch.

I’m also a fan of this .72 caliber English sporting rifle for the same reasons.

 

[stubshaft]

An early Virginia (this was the very first style flintlock that I bought) in .58 OR a Kibler Colonial.

 

[SOLANCO]

Partial to .36 in a long rifle. It is a finicky PITA in some ways but I like to shoot it. Probably shoot my .58 long rifle more often for the comparative ease. These for plinking or range.

Hunting I almost always take my percussion double.

 

[longcruise]

58, med length swamped barrel, no more than 7.5#.
