    Inkle loom

    use the same color thread on the paddle as the end threads. it'll look better and hide the ends.

    36 in a 45 bbl?

    Has anybody ever shot a .36 RB out of a .45 cal rifle with any luck? Just read on another board that someone wanted to do this for squirrel hunting this year. He was going to double or triple patch the ball. this would save a lot of lead and powder if it works.

    first char cloth

    I started making my own char cloth a couple years ago. I used a common mint tin can. punched a hole in the top and put some cotton cleaning patches inside and let it cook over the campfire for a minute or so. when it stops smoking out of the hole, give it a few more seconds and remove. it's all...

    First Batch of Round balls .45 cal

    Once I found out how easy it was to open the top, I did use my heavy glove to just open and cut the overage off.. very easy. I bet I cast closer to 50 or 60, but those looked like Hershey choco drops.. just threw those back into the mix. yup, no way saying i'm an expert,, just a newbie that...

    First Batch of Round balls .45 cal
