Not much kick from the black pwder. I have a 45 inline and a 50 great plains flintlock I built from a kit. I use Sabots in the 45 and it is like shooting a regular rifle. The flintlock you have to get used to the flash.......boom!
I like the new black powder gun :cheers: and I think the 45 is the way to go, I may have to get one, one day I hope, I have hunted with one a few times and never had a shot on a deer but knocked down a couple of coyotes at 70 yards, blew one up against a fence :glasses7: shocked me how it just knocked him over like that :color:
