    Hi, I am new here

    I definitely have the percussion caps then...they fit the nipple and don't have a rim on them. So it would probably behoove me to buy the 209 system for a little extra oomph. I looked in the stuff that came with the rife today and I had three of the charge tubes, many bullets but they are...

    Hi, I am new here

    I was surprised yesterday when one of the men I teach in my adult Sunday School class said...Come take a walk with me I have something I want you to have. It was a muzzleloader, my first. He gave me a very gently used Thompson Center High Plains Sporter in 50 caliber with a 1 in 48 right hand...
