Shooting an English cap and ball revolver

I got the bug to shoot my Holland transitional percussion revolver. Had some trouble with proper caps and I could tell by the shape of the rammer head it was made for a conical bullet, but had to use a round ball. But I got her to shoot and video taped the experience and posted it to you tube. If your interested in these Brit. revolvers, have a look. JW

Some interesting features, like the "fences" between the nipples and the sealing cylinder.

Thanks for giving us a look and doing it with video, to boot.

Beautiful piece, I like the pre-Marlin 'microgroove' rifling. Excellent video.

As a lover of the unconventional... I say bravo!
