I had my flintlock at the range today, so I set up my iPhone and grabbed some slow-mo video. :grin:

That was somewhat slow ignition for that rifle. That was the last shot of about 30 shots today, so the breech was getting a bit cruddy.
Ignition at full speed:

The shot hit true, too. This is the result of the shot taken in the video. The target is a 6" dot, I was using a 6 o'clock hold, and the distance was 50 yards. The rifle shoots about 2" high at that distance.
