When I was hot & heavy into muzzleloading a while back. Probably a good 40% of the original ML firearms brought into the the shop for work were loaded. I remember worming the charge out of a single barrel shotgun once to find approx. 2 oz. of shot, maybe 3 drams of powder, and a German language newspaper used for wadding dated in the 1850's. Had a extremely minty 1862 Colt Pocket Police brought in loaded with conicals and still capped at about that same time too!

Check 'em all out!!!!
