Awesome M.A.C.,
I was actually considering asking you about this directly when I found this thread answered my question. I had always believed that the Campbell, Black Watch, Hunting Grant, etc. were the same tartan. But a few weeks ago I was at a Highland Games where I stopped by the Clan Campbell tent where I was told that the Campbell and Black Watch were different and the reasoning behind it was because of the colours being lighter or darker. The person at the tent wasn't trying to be beligerant, they actually very nice and took the time to look up the two (acutally one) tartan in a couple books they had there.
Now I have no doubts that the Hunting Grant in ancients colours is just as "Grant" as it is in modern colours. I eventually want to get a Ancient Hunting Grant kilt. Something a little more subdued than my Modern Grant.
