    Muzzle Loading Basics PDF

    Hi there people. I recently stumbled acrossing this www.cahe.nmsu.edu/pubs/_circulars/circ500.pdf which is a very basic but informative .pdf file which I found helpful and those that know very little or nothing about the sport will also find it beneficial. Regards Murray

    Muzzle Loader Books

    Great thanks, I am ordering it from amazon.com There are two options open to me both options are used books which is fine, but the one book goes for $49.97 and the other $39.99. Obviously the cheaper one is more attractive, but esentially are they the same book?

    Lyman Rifles

    Great thanks! That looks like a nice little piece of work. So the more twists the barrel has the slower the round goes?

    Thanks for the response! "The Muzzle Loading Caplock Rifle" Seems tough to find, which is a pity because every review i have found on it raves about what a super read it is. I am on the look out for that one. I have ordered "The Complete Blackpowder Handbook" which looks very...

    Lyman Rifles

    Well after deciding not to go down the route of the Ardesa rifles for a number of reasons. I am now looking at Lyman rifles which look like a better choice for a beginner. Any comments on this idea? Anyone own a Lyman? Thanks Murray

    Ardesa Rifles

    So do you think I should rather wait a while, get some more money together, learn more about the sport and then make a more educated decision and buy a more worthwhile rifle(better quality, reliability etc...)?

    Ardesa Rifles

    Well the cheapest one retials for 2000 South African Rand which is +-$330 US. So i suppose that says alot. I really want a rifle that I am not going to get too serious with but is not overly expensive and reliable. Really just for hunting.

    Hi

    Great to see some South Africans on, like i said the sport has always been present in this country for a number of years but has been relitively small, with the removal of the need for muzzleloaders needing a license the sport has taken off...which is great. I know i am going off the topic a...
