flintlock kit

When you prime the flashpan only cover the flash hole. Use as little powder as possible, its speed up the ignition of the main charge.
If you fill the flashpan to the top the powder has to burn down before reaching the flash hole. it slows down the ignition and wastes powder.

cheers good tip ,
