Muzzleloading revolvers have generally been considered ill-suited for taking big game because of their limited cylinder capacity and poor sights. Modern advances in powers, such as Hodgdon's Triple7even, and the use of Keith-style bullets in weights up to 255-grains have considerably increased the potency of cap and ball revolvers to the extent that the larger .44-caliber revolvers can reliably take average-sized deer and hogs. If further modified with features such as longer barrels and/or adjustable sights, the confident killing range of these guns can be further enhanced. This book examines the capabilities of these revolvers ranging from .22-.45 caliber with detailed information on loads and performance on game.
