Flintlocks, are as accurate as any other gun without a scope. It depends on your load and the how tight you pack the ball with the patch. With practise and lots of it, you can be very proficient with a flintlock, and it is a lot more fun than any other gun.

Slightly more accurate than throwing a rock. These were large diameter smoothbore firearms- internal barrel diameter was not always consistent. 25 FEET would be a usable range.
