Ok-front stuffers versus cartridge guns.
      04/03/09 06:15 PM

Help me-as a nincompoop-to understand.

Talking single shots, I guess not too much is lost in the cartridge vs muzzle loader scenario.

However, whats the difference between them load wise?? I take it that a percussion gun can take a heavier load than a cartridge gun, no? no action to become loose, no weakness....the only escape is out of the end of the barrel, right?

When they are being loaded, are they ever known to go off while ramrodding?! Or am I just being daft?

Thankyou!

Oh and what would a 6-bore percussion rifle probably have as a load?

Ben
