In this case its Maple and Browned steel...
Flintlock long rifle with a .50 cal. 42 inch barrel. This is a rifle I bought off Akaroa earlier this year. With roundballs and canvas patches with 80 grains of 3F she shoots .480 balls at 1800 fps. For accuracy I can do a three inch group at 100 metres, which is about what you could expect from a .303 or a .30-30, forget about a rifle whose 300 year old ignition system consists of an actual rock.
