Finally got a chance to shoot just a little yesterday.
In the last few months I've added a LeMat, Walker, and a home built .50 cal Hawken style pistol to my collection.
I only shot the Walker yesterday, but had fun. I was very surprised at how little recoil the Walker has. That huge weight sure soaks it up. I expected it to shoot high at 25 yards just like my Remmies and Colt does, but it seemed to be even higher than they are.
I usually shoot .451 round balls in the Remmies and Colt, but tried .454 with the Walker. I noticed it still wasn't cutting a really good lead ring. Do most of you Walker shooters use .457's?
