I don't have any issue with the recoil from the rifle and I like the fact that it is light. I don't like the balance issue, but I can live with it. Now if I could just get the thing to shoot better.... I need to try some different bullets and go with loose powder.Quote:

I should see it this week, then wait for gun shows to get the accessories, the budget will be blown on the guns so it will take the spring to get things sorted out for the range.
Congrats on yer percussion smoke pole Fox. Have fun with it and don't be surprised if you get hooked. I foresee a flinter in yer future. Keep yer powder dry Pilgrim...................................Daniel
It showed up in the mail, a lot lighter than I actually expected for 7lbs, still nothing my wife could hunt with but the 7lbs is spread out nicely.
Now my list for the gun show starts, it came with nothing other than the under barrel ramrod, so I have a number of things to pickup before I can shoot it.
