Range Report:

61 degrees, cloudless, brilliant sunshine, and windy. Shot 50 yards offhand with buck and ball; .678 round ball and 3 rounds of .32 ball over 80 grains of 3X powder. Started high and left with 90 grains, then compensated and reduced the load to 80 grains. 9/10 balls on target with quite a kick. I've been naming my CW muskets after 'Young Frankenstein." My .72 M39 Prussian is Frau Blucher, the 1861 M61 Springfield is "Inspector Kemp," and this one is "Igor."
