If you just look at the bell of a bell-backed wedge, might it look like a

Go for 20 gauge, more lead, wads, patches ready made and available and it was
the "other" popular military load and readily available to the civilian
market. As long as you get along or stole from the FRENCH.

I think you will find that anything less then 10x10 is to small in a heavy

Thanks for a great website. The Canadian history very much affected the
RMFT. My wife (of the past 6 years is Canadian, Lethbridge - Fort Whoop-Up)
Alberta. This has given me several great opportunities to expand my
horizons! I am also interested in the De la Verendryes who came into my
stomping grounds (Wind River Mtns - Dubois) in 1743. Much obliged to you.
