32 Cal
Well here I am in the middle of England and they say around here that you don’t have to learn to swim because we are as far away from the sea as you can get (its only 72 miles).
Anyway enough of this, muzzLe loading is what it’s all about. Here in the UK about the best rifles we can get is Pedersoli from Italy and I have three. A Rocky Mountain Hawken 54 cal, a Pennsylvania Dixey 45 cal and a Missouri River Hawken 50cal all percussion locks mainly because the flint we get are not very good to say the least. I cast my own ball and bullets which is something I really enjoy doing and now that I am retired I shoot about three times a week. What a wonder life.
