I received a horn for Christmas, made by my son-in-laws brother. This was his first attempt at making a horn. The stopper is made from deer antler, and has little or no taper. Due to shrinking or the horn expanding, the stopper is loose in the horn. Is the horn and stopper, usually tapered? Would deer antler be acceptable as stopper material? Earlier today, I posted a picture of the horn, in Photo section. (Christmas horn and bag).
