Shooting the Cabin Fever Challenge with my Home Made Flintlock | The Iron Ram
Be sure to like and subscribe if you'd like to get more videos from us in the future.
Since the start, the competition has grown and now includes 6 division, most recently .22 rimfire. Today my group is participating in the muzzleloader division, division 5.
I'm shooting the same flintlock you watched me build last winter. This is my .50 cal Isaac Haines inspired flintlock. I'm shooting a .490 ball with 60 grains of 3F blackpowder.
In the muzzle loader division, we are tasked with shooting 1 shot standing, kneeling, prone, and sitting as fast as we can. Our target is an 8” bull set at 50 yards. Shots cutting the black bull, or in the black bull count as “hits” regardless of location in the bull. Scores are calculated by (Number of Hits) x5/ Time in seconds x 100.

Thanks Steve!
The rifle shoots as good as it looks, the shooter is doing his part! Nice work, I always wanted a kit from Jim Chambers, but never did it, I do have a custom J.p.Beck, 50 cal Rocklock, swamped 42” barrel, curly maple, and I love it! All my life I’ve had Blackpowder in my blood, ever since we went to Friendship when I was 12. Short starters and ram rods have ruined more barrel then anything else!

@@TheIronRam I agree with the sentiments but there are many in the shooting world who don't deserve one and wouldn't appreciate it.
OMG! That rifle is BEAUTIFUL! ! 😍
Great shooting, awesome group !!
Very nice rifle and good shooting as well. My 2nd build from TVM is just about done. My first, a .50 calibre Early Virginia shoots and looks awesome. Much plainer than yours though.
How did you shorten the barrel?
How did you stain it?
