I thought about shooting my high wall but remembered how much fun my flintlock is. :)

50 yds off hand Frontier flintlock .50 cal. Patched round ball. 8” gong.

Have to say, you sure seem to be having a great time with that flintlock. Might want to shoot that new fangled High Wall sometime, though. Not like it would be cheating. :)

I’ll be able to shoot at 50 when I finish my berm. I read your reports and it keeps me going.

Don’t paint your targets blue. Too hard to see. I repainted them yellow.

I'll bet it was a bit dark.
Yellow would be good, I usually paint mine orange or white.
