    Very enjoyable video. You are definitely living history and testing what has been historically recorded as technique. I very much enjoy what you are doing and admire your research prior to conducting your testing. Merry Christmas to you and your family, and may 2025 bring you success in all of your endeavors.

      That’s so very kind and humbling. Thank you for your support.

    Glad to see you carry a large powder horn. I made mine from a Highland cow horn and it's a wee bit large

      This thing is huge but I really like it. I don’t notice the weight or size that much compared to smaller ones.

    They had molds and were capable of lapping them smooth.

      I could team these out better but I wanted to first see what happened this way.

    Another great video. Noticing your large powder horn . I think it warrants a video on powder horn size. Would a longhunt party carry avg size and refill at camp or would they carry large powder horns. Maybe a future video idea.

      That’s a great idea. I will see what I can find with it!

    Very interesting, but I wish ya had put it on paper and used a bench to show the true accuracy. Reminds me of a bag mold i bought for my .40 . When I went to load, the ball wouldn't go down. Scratching my head i removed the patch and tried again... no go ! I mic the balls they were everything from 41 to 43 caliber 😢
    It's really kool 😎 that ya made the mold and shot the balls!! Thanks 👍 😊

      I might do some paper and a rest on the next one actually. Well, somewhat of a rest at least anyways.

      I get it. I have been shooting my whole life and professionally for 25 years. I have seen first hand that you only get issued two eyeballs and two good ears. Once they are gone, that’s it.

    Anthony, what are your thoughts about using greased tow over the top of the ball to prevent it rolling forward. Some of the smoothbore barrels recovered in the Voices from the Rapids book were loaded with round ball and wadding in front of it. TY

    • @thedeerskindiary
      @thedeerskindiary  18 дней назад +2

      If I were to carry this particular caliber/bullet
      combo it would be a requirement to keep it from rolling out. I would likely use wasp nest since it’s easier for me to use.

    Great video. Black powder is more reliable than most really think.

    • @thedeerskindiary
      @thedeerskindiary  19 дней назад +2

      I’m glad you liked it! It is a pretty interesting form of technology and will do predictable things when handled right it seems.

    Thank you for sharing another great experiment!
    You have me wondering if they would have shaved down the wings or used as is. I give you credit for going with the as is to see the results. In a previous reply you mentioned using wasp nest to secure the ball. Do you think that would change the accuracy at all?
    May have to try making one of these.
