day 2 is done. same 7 bulls in the same field. 1 group of 12 cows busted us but another group of 4 didn't even know we were there. lead cow comes in through the trees, stops broadside at 75 yards right in a perfect shooting lane. I get my rest on a stump, line up and squeeze the trigger.

What happens? POP, the cap blows but not the powder

re-cap but they are gone. got up to the road and fired off at a tree. BANG! turns out I have 2 different tins of caps. both are CCI musket caps,both purchased from wholesale sports. one says in tiny letters " For Renactment use". They have almost no pop whatsoever. Oh well, tomorrow is coming and we know where they live.
