Truth be known. That photo was from a newspaper shoot on muzzleloading and rendez-vous schidt. All my buds got a real big laugh on me when the writer said we "attended events called rendezvous and ate period stew!" They all wanted to know how many Kotex's it took to make a proper period stew??? (Sorry Bigblock on The thread hijack!). Please forgive.

My .54 PRB generally kills what it hits. 230gr of lead is a lot of attitude.
