    T/C Renegade: Another “damaged in shipment” story…

    Was the gun shipped with the barrel IN the stock??? That's the biggest error made. The barrels must be removed and wrapped individually before packing. I just got a nice Seneca yesterday via FedEx and it was exceptionally packaged and in two parts, as I requested. I noted on another thread...

    Round ball and blood trails

    This is essentially the same thought I had just reading the thread title. Two recent experiences: 1. 2023 early January, .50 flintlock, PRB, 25 yards on a big button buck. Slight quarter-away angle. Tree stand, about 15 feet to my barrel. Ball entered perfectly behind the near shoulder...

    Gunbroker Unscrupulous Sellers

    I have purchased from Hibid without initial issue a few times. The site is legit enough but you need to know that the item you are bidding on may be listed on numerous other sites, as you said, it's an aggregator. The single biggest issue of buying through a broker or even directly from an...

    SOLD TC Renegade .50 Percussion

    Late model TC Renegade, .50 percussion. I bought this in 2020 and it was new-in-the-box. I have fired it no more than 20 times, all round ball loads at 80 grains 2F. The original configuration was factory sights. I have the original box as well which I will include. I have added a factory...

    FOR SALE .50 and .54 Maxi-Balls + .50 Great Plains Bullets

    I have .50 and .54 Maxi-Balls that I will not use. I bought these two years ago and my TCs prefer round balls and that's fine with me. I believe I got these from October Country. .50 = 71 count = $40 shipped .54 = 38 count = $30 shipped all 109 for $60 shipped Hornady Great Plains Bullets...

    Gunbroker Unscrupulous Sellers

    I have purchased a couple guns from GB over the years. Only once was I mislead when I bought a .50 Renegade that looked used but in really good condition. Once I got it, and I kid you not, I went thru more than 1,000 cleaning patches and every option you imagine to clean that bore. It looked...

    WANTED Cherokee Tang Peep Sight

    I am looking for a factory tang peep for my .32 Cherokee. I do OK with the factory open sights but my eyes seem to be getting worse faster. I stare at a computer screen all day and my focal distance is about 36 inches which plays havoc with any open sight combo I've tried. Peeps work fairly...

    How many .32 Cherokee kits were made?

    #7367 .32 with DST, "Cherokee" stamped on the barrel. I found it on an auction site, unfired, near pristine condition. Shoots better than my eyes are capable. 20g FFF, .310 ball and .010 patch has allowed me to take a few 40 yard headshots on squirrels. My next quest is finding the tang...

    TC Hawken Rifle barrel/caliber swaps

    It's possible to find .32 and .36 barrels for a Hawken or Renegade but they will be custom. And heavy. A .54 Renegade barrel is lighter than a .50, 1-inch flats but less metal as more is bored out, and so on. I have seen some .32s for both models pop up for sale on various sites/forums, even...

    Shooting into......

    For muzzle loader velocities... Straw bales. Bottom row side-facing, top row end-on. I place my targets to line up with the top row. Once it rains and the bales get soaked, no round ball is going through them. I use a shipping pallet faced with 1/2 plywood in front of that stack. I have one...

    Cleaning .36 Seneca

    I also do the hot water with an old deep sauce pan. No additives. I patch clean first to get the easy stuff out then do the pan. For a TC you need the rounded scrapper in the event you decide you want one.

    Good deer hunting load

    ETipp: I shot a doe with one of those 'things' two years ago. 90 yards, 250 grain pointed jacket... slight down and quarter to me angle. Dropped her on the spot. Took out both lungs and the rib that was hit going in broke her spine, which is why she dropped. Had that buck I mentioned missed...

    Good deer hunting load

    To add thoughts on the target animal... Size. Even in whitetails, matters. Angle matters. State of the animal matters. Just a few of the factors. The button buck I shot this year, slight quartering away, was rib-rib-upper leg bone all shattered, no exit at 25 yards. Had that been a mature...

    TC .50 Caliber Hawken, Renegade and New Englander 1:48 shooters..........

    I would agree based on my four barrels. I have tried 15s, 18s and 20s and they just don't load easy nor shoot as well. Every barrel is unique and I would guess that over 100s/1000s of shots, that preference for a 10 may turn into a 12 or 15. If I were telling someone new to the game what...

    TC .50 Caliber Hawken, Renegade and New Englander 1:48 shooters..........

    My Renegade .50 flint, 1991, likes round balls (.490/.010 patch) and 75 grains of 2F. It dislikes, rather aggressively, anything pointed or elongated. PA conicals, Maxi-ball, Maxi-hunter, and jacketed stuff have all been refused like an angry two-year being being told 'No'. My percussion .50...

    Patch lube for round ball shooting..........Lawdy.

    You are all going to hate on me for this... haha but these are three shots from my Pedersoli Scout flint .50 with quick loaders that were 10 months old. Instead of breaking them down I wanted to see how they would shoot. This is 25 yards. the left most hole is shot #1 so that's on me not the...

    Investarms

    I have not found confirmation of this that I can recall, but from every angle that I have seen an Invest vs a TC, the invest looks to be a direct 99.99% copy of a TC Renegade (most models), right down to the scrolling on the lock plates. Does anyone actually know the back story there?
