Despite having no interest in pistols over decade of firearm ownership ( mainly a hunter ) I allowed myself to be persuaded to try muzzle loading pistol shooting at my club and I have to grudgingly admit it is the most fun you can have on a range whilst remaining fully clothed.

Even stranger is that I appear to have something approximating a talent for it, managing a score of 101/120 on a PL7 at 25 yards with a club Rogers and Spencer.

I am entering my first competition this month and am in the process of putting together a variation form for this and one or two other bits.

A chap at the club has a Euroarms Rogers and Spencer in good nick that he wants 150 quid for, seems a no-brainer?

Any tips, observations or things to be aware of chaps?
