My gunsmith had one of the cartridges, and I thought it is the coolest load I have ever seen -- is it at all possible to find a gun in it? Brass? What are they like, etc. etc. etc.

The one on the left is an Tolley and shoots an 11 Dram load of BP and 1250 Grain Bullet at 1500 fps.

The Right one is a Manton and shoots a 950 grain bullet in front of 8 drams of BP

Thanks for the info -- what are they like on recoil? I imagine a REALLY big push. Looks like I finally found something to save my gun pennies for.

It's a bit more than that. More like a very big fist smacking you very hard in the shoulder.
