2025-12-03 13:11:39 +0000 UTCWith the Baker rifle, the Riflemen were the Special Forces of their day when the British Army was a proper army in the early 1800's. During standard training, soldiers dry fired their muskets using oak "flints" to get used to the heavy trigger pull. The Brown Bess had a nominal .75" bore and they fired a ball that was .65" in diameter. The windage, the gap between the ball and the bore, allowed for gas to escape and stabilize the ball, keeping it centered. It allowed them to shoot their guns 20-40 rounds before they had to swab the barrel during practice. They were trained at range estimation and during live fire training, they learned how much to adjust for drop. Much like an archer, they developed a "feel" for it. At the end of training, infantrymen were expected to be able to fire their Brown Bess 3 times a minute using paper cartridges. They were also expected to hit a 10 foot by 10 foot target at 400 yards with deliberate fire, taking their time. If they were able to hit the center or make a tight group, they were advanced to the Rifleman units and given even more training on the Baker rifles. The paper cartridges issued for the Baker rifles had cloth or soft leather patches sewn around the ball to increase their rate of fire, but the 3 rounds per minute weren't a requirement. If they needed a quick reload, could also use the regular musket cartridges with an acceptable loss of accuracy. Any trained infantryman could easily hit a man up to 100 yards. If they were caught flinching or closing their eyes upon firing during practice, they were given the lash so they wouldn't do that during combat. You had to miss on purpose after that much training and mercy was beaten out of them.

The way they made the movie, Sony designed the lightest cameras they could so they could convince certain F-1 teams to allow them to mount cameras on the cars. They did face swaps for the drivers with the actors and they used CG to swap skins with the real cars for the character cars. They spliced real footage together through the whole year to make the movie.
