  • Hunting partridge with vintage muzzle and breech loading arms is definitely one of the best times. And if you do this with long time friends, you multiply the joy. Here is the story of a drilling made by Sauer und Sohn in the end of the 19th century still breaking clays and shooting birds.

    Impressive, all around. I just love to watch a good bird dog in action. It just amazes me how close a good dog can get, then hold before flushing the birds. To add to that everyone looked like they worked very well together: it is vital that everyone always knows where everyone else, at all times, in relation to themselves and then on the flush, where the bird is and where its flying in relation to everyone else. And by "everyone else", I mean everyone and the dogs too. Then you add in the beauty of blackpowder arms to the hunt and you have the makings of a fantastic day.

    I used to hunt black powder in the 1970's with a replica 12 gauge English double in 12 made by Navy Arms. I now use a 12 gauge J.P. Sauer & Sohn (Soule) 1932 double with Krupp LaufStahl barrels. It was originally chambered for 2 1/2" shotshells (which I reloaded) however I rechambered the shotgun for 2 3/4" shotshells to take advantage of commercial non-toxic (bismuth) waterfowl shotshells. Thank you for a very good video and as always I appreciate the respect you give the game after the hunt. Keep up the good work.

    Shotgun cartridges were invented in the 1860s. Most early shotgun cartridges had a brass case, just like rifle and pistol cartridges. A few manufacturers during 1870-1900 offered shotshells with paper cases, but the early paper cases swelled when wet and paper cases could not be reloaded as many times as brass cases.

    You look so genuinely happy while shooting. I wish I had at least one friend that likes shooting black powder guns, Ive taken them out to my friends while we are doing some back yard shooting sometimes, but they dont see it as any more than a novelty and dont like to relax and actually enjoy reloading a gun for 2-3 minutes. That's really part of the therapy for me.

    One evening a guy showed up at my local gun club trap shooting session and brought his breech loading, black powder shotgun. He was kind enough to let anyone shoot it who wanted a go. It got dark in the late evening and the black powder put on quite a show. First, a long blast of flame, which turned to thick smoke and finally the fall of burning embers from the cardboard wad. The smoke obscured your vision and you couldn't tell if you hit the clay or not. Overall, quite the experience!

    My grandpa had a Veterelli in his antique shop when I was in my teens. I researched reloading the caliber but I was not set up to cast lead. I remember that the article talked about seating the bullet onto a .41 Swiss case to shave a heel into the bullet, then pulling it to seat on the Veterelli case. I think the reason for using the Swiss case was that the cases for his .41 Swiss center-fire conversion were thicker than the Veterelli cases. Buffalo Arms may have some components.

    Paper shells need to return. In 2000 I was enthusiastic about turning 11 soon and my mother let me grab the old 16 gauge out from the closet and shoot it off the front porch. I grew up on a farm so that's not as crazy as it might sound. These shells were old paper hulls and had a distinct aroma that I have never experienced in all of my shooting since.

    Great video (as usual) and I eco the sentiments re seeing more of your BP hunting videos.
    I have not met you in person, but I've been at a few MLAIC championships as a clay shooter.
    I got into serious BP clay shooting 30 years ago, it all stemmed from not wanting to shoot
    the bag limit of ducks and geese with modern, so to reduce those quanities, I turned to muzzle loading.
    My greatest joy is deaters day on the Craigmore Station/Farm pheasant shoot in New Zealand.
    If it's a wet day I use my BP cartridge hammer shotgun, but if dry, I have a NZ made muzzle
    loading 12g.
    I have tried brass 12g cases, but don't get on with them, so I use used plastic cases, but with BP
    they only last one shot, BP is just too hot.
    my load is 1 1/4oz shot (now dismuth) and the same volume 2FF.
    Back in my competition days, I practiced with 100 clay a week. I used powder bought from a fireworks
    company, it was their morter launch powder (they use compressed air now), it worked great, 😃.
    I found that practicing with a flint lock was best, as it improved my follow through.
    I'm now retired from competition, but still get out there with my shotguns.
    More black poder hunting videos please.

      I used it in my 1780 Mortimer 14g flinter with great success and would even set the charge off while being held upside down, just amazing stuff!

    Info: count the rifle grooves in your rifle barrel. If it's seven there's a high probability is Alexander Henry style rifling. Was designed specifically to lessen the effects of black powder fouling and the British army settled upon this rifling for thier Martini Henry rifles. From what I understand this 7 groove concept would be exceptionally difficult to reproduce using modern rifling methods.
    Strange but supposedly a true fact.
