    T/C Hawken Stock

    I survived a number of years in the MARINES. Today is the Marine Corps Birthday by the way. I got to shoot allot of cool stuff and without going into detail. Recoil does not bother me. I know from my training it's a mental thing. The percussions I do not even anticipate. The flintlock I'm...

    T/C Hawken Stock

    The tang is mated for another barrel as well and fits the other barrel perfectly. Because of that. Out came the file. I was very carefull as I filed thus the time spent. The new 1-66 barrel out of the box shot really well. Shooting a flint and not flinching is a mind game I'm determined to master.

    T/C Hawken Stock

    Will do roundball. I'll use the dial caliper on the balls. Little upset with T/C this evening. Just received a new Fox River 50 call 1 in 66 flint barrel. Their hook or plug at the base of the barrel did not even come close to fitting in my tang. It took about an half hour and a bastard file to...

    Eye protection while hunting w/ flintlock

    Range yes, with a flint. Hunting no! No weapon formed against me shall prosper. With a flint I'm prone to say a little prayer as I prime the pan and enter the woods. This has never failed me.

    T/C Hawken Stock

    Roundball, I use a ball starter. By no means are the .010 patches easy to load. It takes moderate pressure to start the ball. So much so that I can feel the patched ball twisting as It follows the lands with tension as it slides down the barrel. With a .015 or even more so a .018 I'm using the...

    T/C Hawken Stock

    You are a tight patch fella. I can tell. It's hard to imagine .015 patch in this rifle let alone an .018. I'm familiar with these patches and even have some in the store.They are not popular here. The bore is pristine. I was the first to fire this rifle. I respect your opinion and will try a...

    T/C Hawken Stock

    I took the Big Boars lock out this evening and stoned the sear. The trigger now has less travel and a cleaner brake. Big improvement. Today I was launching .570 speer RB's with 100 grains of 777 with a .010 ox-yoke patch. The balls went down with good moderate TENSION all the way down. At fifty...

    T/C Hawken Stock

    Roundball, You the Man! Given the choice. Which would you choose? GM or T/C? Like you I'm a RB lover and I look wood ramrods ONLY! Like you, I have a collection of differant T/C side locks. Today I shot the Big Boar and was fustrated in regards to accuracy. Any Ideas?

    GM makes a 50 only as far as I have found.

    T/C Hawken Stock

    I've purcased a T/C Hawken stock and have scrounged up a lock and most of the other parts. I sold another 54 percussion today and would like to replace with a flint 54. What are my options for a drop-in barrel besides Foxridge?

    J. Eddie Brown

    Have you heard of him? Is he still alive? How can I find this fella?

    J. Eddie Brown

    I've been watching the rifles on the Track of the wolf website for some time. The J. Eddie Brown rifles are spectacular! How can this man be reached? My dream rifle is a Jacob Dickert by this fella.

    T/C Lock upgrade.

    I'm told the L&R lock is not blued or case hardened? Will you cold blue it?

    T/C Lock upgrade.

    Lots of good info. Thanks. I purcashed a pristine T/C Hawkin stock that does not have a lock yet and want to build a second flinter. You might say I got bit by the flintlock bug. The T/C lock seems to be winning out. My first flint is back at T/C for trigger issues. I suspect what they return to...

    T/C Lock upgrade.

    I have nothing to compare this lock too. This is my first flint. I own a number of percussion rifles. The L&R locks have bearing surfaces and the strokes are shorter. I've heard.

    T/C Lock upgrade.

    Dixie has a lock that replaces the T/C lock. Has anyone tried this? It's a 150.00

    Muzzleloader made in Japan

    I own a .45 cal Ultra-Hi thats a percusion rifle. It has a removeable breach plug that has never given me a lick of trouble. I own a number of muzzleloaders of much greater value then my old Ultra-Hi. Few shoot as well.
