    What kind of rocks do you use in your flinters?

    Hey all.. Was just thinking about trying some of those amber french flints. And was wondering what ya'all thought about them? Normally I stick with the english flints and have pretty decent luck with them. Just picked up a dozen from the "Track of the wolf". But have heard some good things...

    I made the purchase

    It's a small light that is used in night fishing, and fits in the top of a night bobber. It can be bought seperately however (about $2). The diameter is roughly 1/8 of an inch.. so very small.. and cheap as well. They also seem to last quite a while. I've had one for over a year now and it's...

    I made the purchase

    Sounds like you have a good starting place for a load for your shooter. Instead of taking out the flash hole liner I use a a bobber light and just drop it down the barrel. Its very small so will work in the smallest of calibers and best of all their cheap and easy to come by. I buy mine at...
