Weapon Mastery: Firearms

I've never made Weapon Mastery tables for the D&D Rules Cyclopedia before.  There are some pretty arbitrary-seeming decisions to be made, especially as far as Primary and Secondary target types.

Well, these may not be up to RC standards, but since I haven't been able to figure out what criteria they used on the RC tables for various weapons, this is better than nothing.  I tried to minimize the funky DCC style dice for this table, but since I already used d5s for the basic fowling piece, d7s snuck in here too.

# Fowling pieces do both dice of damage at short range, the higher of the two dice at medium range, and the lower of the two at long range
