Daryl_S,
That is a bad deal about your moose season. I too am a student of S.W. Baker and Lt.Forsyth. Their writings influenced my choices in round ball rifles. I think we can agree that in their eyes and wealth of experience a .45 prb would be, as the British called them, a rook and rabbit rifle. As a teenager back in the 1980's my friends and I started using ML's for the special deer season as a way to get more time in the field. One friend had had a T/C Hawken .45 and used prb's. We called him "two times" because he always was having to shoot every deer twice with it. He did get a T/C Renegade .54 years later and the prb penetration problems disapeared. He now shoots an inline but we still hunt together.
