this is a new to me flintlock. it is a southern rifle in 54 caliber. it was built by matt avance of TVM muzzle loading. it has a 38in swamped round bottom riffling barrel. it has a curly ash stock. the lock a bob roller. I got it yesterday and got mold today. I cast up some round balls. I shot it 5 times today off the bench at 50yds. 75gr. of 2f .535 RB with .018 pillow ticking and ballistol lube, a[img]https://i.imgur.com/13I7uvRl.jpg[img]https://i.imgur.com/VYoBLjdl.jpg[img]https://i.imgur.com/91OZJ2Gl.jpg[img]https://i.imgur.com/aBJv3gLl.jpg[img]https://i.imgur.com/tEEC7utl.jpg[img]https://i.imgur.com/ze13Ic1l.jpg[/img][/img][/img][/img][/img][/img]nd this is the group.

That's a beaut! Not bad shootin for open irons either!
Congrats are in order!
Round bottom rifling is a new one on me. It may go a distance in preventing leading?

round bottom riffling makes it easer to clean. with the patch you get no leading,,,,,,,,,,,,
