shotguns and dry vegetation

axelp:
In the California Sierras, in late spring, thru summer and early fall,  it can be dry enuff that wads and cloth patches can smolder and there is a fire risk. When we have done shooting in dryer times, we keep a sharp eye and walk the foreground to stomp out any smoldering patches or wads. I do not shoot my flintlock in the woods when its that dry. But in other climes where it is less dry, I doubt there is as much risk of that.

Wow, how many zero's are in a bazillion?  ;D   After I lost my leg I can only count to 15 anyway.  ;D
