Buck and ball vs Minié ball vs single ball cartridges of the American Civil War

Another interesting experiment from the Capandball guys. This time they compare the accuracy of the single ball and buck and ball cartridges fired from a smooth bore musket versus the accuracy of the Springfield rifle musket loaded with a Minié ball cartridge. Just fun to watch! Capandball is replacing an original Harper's Ferry musket with a Pedersoli 1798 Austrian, so we also have our share from the show. :)
