This powder horn was made for Jason Schneider of Rice Muzzle Loading Barrel Company. Jason is a good friend and makes both rifled and smooth bore barrels of the highest quality. I was honored to have the opportunity to build this horn for him. I would like to give a special “Thank You” to John Proud, who guided me in selecting the raw horn for this project and to Art DeCamp, who’s book Pennsylvania “Horns of the Trade” Screw-tip Powder Horns and their Architecture proved an invaluable resource.

I always enjoy seeing Clint's work. He is an awesome living historian too.
