I have a twin barrel flintlock, .615 caliber. I load it with pellets on one side and buck & Ball on the other side. Thus it is a good hunting gun for a more primitive time.
I know about the early jaeger rifles (.615 caliber was common). When did the first double rifles or rifle/shotguns come into creation? I could see a .45 caliber rifle with a 20 ga smooth bore working well in flintlock. Saw some percussion swivel rifles today at the Indy 1500.
Just has me thinking.
