"Round balls in a muzzle loader are no good for bears"
I swear to God I don't think the kid had a huntign licence for more than 2 years!!
Another one was " the 28 gauge is okay for rabbits and grouse, but that's it"
Neither went unaswered by me , seeing how my hawken shooting a .58 round ball has accounted for a fair number of bears, and my main hunting shotgun for everything upland is a 28!!
