Finished this up last night. Definitely not everyone's cup of tea. I found a picture of an original Sioux horn, and wanted to make one, inspired by it.
Bison horn body. Red painted plugs. Decorated with tacks and brain tan fringe.
Used it today at our monthly muzzleloader shoot and it performed very well.

That is a beautiful horn, the first horn that I ever made was a bison horn.

Both of those are very cool pieces. I received a deceased friends powder horn today and unfortunately the plug is missing. Eric

Base or tip? It can probably be repaired. Great piece to have either way.

Tip. The small end the powder comes out of.

That should be an easy repair. I've whittled plugs out of twigs when someone lost them while on a woods walk.
