Thanks Im asking for two reasons. First Im planning a two week hunt and didnt want to have to load and clean it every day. Second I was toying with the idea of carrying a BP revolver as a self defense gun "just because" and "for show" when I work in the gun shop. I suppose I can shoot and clean it every week or so.

Ive got a couple different guns I had toyed with "carrying", (LeMat, Starr DA, and 1860 Colt--maybe even the 20ga Howdah) all are repros but I dont want to ruin them. As I said it just for fun and to be a bit showee...

For the hunt Im going to use my 72 cal Pedersoli Double Rifle.
