Old Mossy Horns
Anybody ever tried it? I have a Remington 1858 Navy .36 cal. replica. I have had for a long time and have thought about squirrel hunting with it. It is an accurate pistol. Since the NCWRC changed regulations on black powder hunting a couple years ago allowing black powder revolvers for deer hunting I have thought about buying a .44/.45 revolver for hunting. I have been researching to see if I could find one that would handle loads sufficient enough to take deer or hogs. I was considering a 1847 Walker, Dragoon or a Ruger Old Army. Well, I finally decided to go less traditional and go with the Ruger. I figure I can get the Ruger to launch a 220 gr. Kaido bullet around 1000 fps. That should be good for close range hunting. I just got the Ruger, so now I'll have fun working on an accurate load.
