During the first shot at a tomato sauce can and cinder block, the rifle successfully destroyed the targets, but the nipple of the firearm blew off due to the discharge.

How effective was the muzzleloader in the paper penetration test?

The muzzleloader, fired with an increased powder charge through 2,000 sheets of copy paper, penetrated approximately 600 pages, demonstrating significant power.

What was the result of using smokeless powder in the black powder rifle?
