As a Texas reenactor, I took my brown bess musket which the Mexian army used to a firing range. I carried a bag of 30 75 caliber musket balls. I was shocked at the weight. Do you know how many balls the british soldier would have had to carry? Would Sharpe as the quarter master have to carry all the balls for the entire army? How many wagons would have been needed? Thanks for the writing and if you are ever in Texas during the spring come by and catch a reenactment. Scott Wendt
