LOL, yes, same thing Sharpsguy told me, a 50 would exit about half the time, a 54 a little more, my 58 has exited everything so far, I wont lie and say I don't cast those balls a little harder at 20 to 1 alloy, I'm looking for an exit regardless of what I hunt with, I like two bleeder holes, bet most do. Good luck and get out there and bust one Buddy.

Interesting side bar Most of the deer restocking on ft campbell in the late 60,s and early 70,s were oklahoma bucks and Wisconsin does in addition to existing tn and ky deer. Then TN also used Ft campbell deer for restocking also. So ya got oklahoma, wisconsin, kentucky and Tennessee gene,s running around this upper middle tn and southern middle kentucky area.

Remember why, specifically, the Bill of Rights was written...remember its purpose. It was written to limit the power of government over the individual.
There is no believing a liar, even when he speaks the truth.

does his right side match his left, or is he non-typical?

Yes, he's a big old typical deerstalker, his right G4 is broke off a bit from scuffling.

Good luck and get out there and bust one Buddy. I need to put that to the test with my Lyman Deerstalker. It's a .54 cal flintlock that's only exited paper so far. Never done any casting but have only shot round balls to date.
