Re: The second Great 1880 era Black powder hunt expedition at Weltevreden 2016
Yes, I limit my muzzleload shots with open sights to 75 yards with a rest although 40-50 yards is more usual.
Did your self-imposed limits restrict you to real black powder and cast bullets available at the time (round balls and minies) or are maxiballs, etc. allowed with substitute black powders?

Re: The second Great 1880 era Black powder hunt expedition at Weltevreden 2016
The limitation was on the use of black powder only , we could use any cast bullets as long as it shoots with black powder ...no smokeless powder in black powder brass .... The spirit is to be as original as possible , re-enacting the 1880 era...

The different firearms are very interesting. I wish I understood Afrikaans.
Whoever made the paper-patched cartridge did a fine job.
