But this broad generalization is often laid more in stereotypes than in data, and is largely misunderstanding the purpose of what a musket actually was. In general, these weapons were far more accurate than people give them credit for. And in their proper context, they were the best tool for the job. ~~Sources & Further Reading On This Topic~~ My video about how soldiers did aim: https://youtu.be/xKMsx68tf34?si=p7djpi_aTZNiEJyB Why did soldiers fight in lines? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbGwg11hQxtkmMCCWJ9Wd77YnOtl0BBkN Dr Burns' "Kabinettskriege" https://kabinettskriege.blogspot.com/2016/02/how-accurate-were-regular-soldiers-in.html https://kabinettskriege.blogspot.com/2018/01/how-close-ranged-were-mid-eighteenth.html https://kabinettskriege.blogspot.com/2018/01/how-often-did-mid-eighteenth-century.html The Old Fort Niagara Video: https://youtu.be/8Cw8ktmlF1A?si=2smAd8oh6_eMTcPG Two articles from the Journal of the American Revolution: https://allthingsliberty.com/2013/08/how-far-is-musket-shot-farther-than-you-think/ https://allthingsliberty.com/2013/08/the-aim-of-british-soldiers/ Finally an article that discusses the accuracy rates of modern firearms: https://www.jstor.org/stable/44227165?read-now=1&oauth_data=eyJlbWFpbCI6ImJyYW5kb25mQG5hdGl2ZW9hay5vcmciLCJpbnN0aXR1dGlvbklkcyI6W10sInByb3ZpZGVyIjoiZ29vZ2xlIn0&seq=18#page_scan_tab_contents ~~Other Links & Contact Info~~ You can directly support my work by becoming a Patron of this channel: ` https://www.patreon.com/BrandonF You may also give a one-time tip here: ` https://ko-fi.com/brandonf Find a free digital library, shop for merchandise, and learn more about this channel's charity work at: ` https://www.nativeoak.org/ Or, another great way to support my work is by booking me on Cameo! 50% of all these proceeds also go to charity: ` https://www.cameo.com/brandonfisichella?qid=1668986855 And of course you can follow me on Facebook and Instagram! ` https://www.facebook.com/TheNativeOak ` https://www.instagram.com/brandonfisichella/ ~~Timestamps~~ Introduction 00:00 18th C.
