Hi all,
some pics of buffalo hunting with my older son Zac. He used an original 1861 Springfield musket ( 65 grains 1 & 1/2 f Olde Eyensford, .575 dia. 515 grain old style Minie boolet) and I used a 191 year old Model 1819 Hall rifle, converted to percussion, with 75 grains of 2 f OE and a .530 round ball with single wrap of wax paper. The Hall has become my current favorite old timey rifle, its handy, accurate and hits hard.
