The older I get, the more fascinated I am by that period of transition between loose powder/shot and cartridge-firing weapons. The Burnside is something I've read about before, but never expected to see anyone actually shooting, due to the oddball cartridge. But apparently Cap-and-Ball managed to make a few reloadable cartridge cases and acquire a carbine, and took it out to shoot. It's just amazing to see a piece of actual Civil War history making smoke on the range again.
