I'm currently writing a novel set in the UK during the early 1800's. One of the scenes will involve a deer stalk (the character's going after a red deer) but I can't seem to find any rifle/musket model that would fit the time and purpose. Any of you chaps would now where to find such information?

How early in the 1800's are you talking here, and where exactly in the UK will it be?

Yes, the 19th century covers the period from 1801 to 1900. So it is correct.

Important question: What social class is the character in? A Lord's deer weapon will be different from a farmer's.

Henry Nock's company, which is famous for making volley guns and later turned into the Wilkinson Sword company, made very nice rifles for hunters and officers.

Thank you, but I cannot for the life of me find any information on other guns produced by the company. It seems Google really loves the seven barrel Nock gun.
