Hey old, I put together Thomson Center 54 cal. Hawken kit back in seventies, plummed barrel and all. I just did not like being in the woods with people with more shells than brains, it seems generally to be a saner mentality of hunters with black powder. I shoot 110 grains double F and patched balls, iron sites and can cover 100 yard groups with off a rest with your hand. The last deer I shot was a doe ducking behind several trees, I aimed forever with that crow bar at her to move to get a clear shot. When I walked up to the spot the ball went threw a 4 inch ash sappling I did not see to the tracks with blood behind it. The deere lay fifty yards up the trail, I probabley would of missed if had not hit the tree! Good advice below, keep your powder dry. Mine will throw the first ball, I like to hunt with the second shot in the barrel. The colder it is the more the barrel fowles, three shots max at ten below zero. I leave charged the two weeks of season if dry, then do the hot water and Ivory soap cleaning. Good luck,, Dan
