    54 cal PRB effective range?

    Like what others have said. the problem is not wondering if the engergy is there, it's connecting to the target. practice using good ammo, and know your rifle. 100 yds without too much Kentucky windage and rainbow trajectory.

    Caps getting stuck in Hammer

    years ago when I had my b/p revolver I used to slightly pinch the caps to make them oval. they stayed on better then just puting them on. and I still do this when I'm hunting.

    found these pill boxes. here looks like they would work pretty well. great idea. looks like you put in a few hours beside the campfire doing that stuff.. site has listed 15 bux for a plain box. ya know my flint/steel works when wet. find some dry stuff and away you go.. good luck.
