Hey, Gary - -
I can't make that link work. Do you have an alternative link for the article? I'd really like to read it.
I've long been itnerested in the Ferguson Rifle. Only piece I ever read on it indicated that the accuracy was not all that great, wither with a VERY nicely made replica, or with
AN ORIGINAL with a good bore. Of course, if your only yardstick is a .75 smoothbore musket, I guess your groups wouldn't need to be too tight.
Best
Johnny
