British 43rd Regiment of Foot Casualty Falling, 1870

Flintlock muskets were the mainstay of European armies between 1660 and 1840. Typically, these muzzle-loading smoothbore long guns were loaded with a round lead ball, or a mixture of ball with several large shot (called buck and ball), and had an effective range of about 100 yards. The caliber of the ball was anywhere from .69/17.5mm to .80/20mm which, when struck home, inflicted considerable damage. Musket balls would penetrate flesh and bone, taking with them parts of clothing, kit, or other debris they came in contact with first. The ball created a round, large wound channel due to its mass and velocity and caused significant tissue damage. These wounds were often severe, leading to high rates of infection and amputations due to the lack of advanced medical care.
