    Bore size??'s

    Well I have it in the works to go with a .62 smooth bore. Should give me a taste and get the gun out of the rack more.

    Bore size??'s

    Still in search mode - but 62 seems about as big as I can go maybe?? This is just the research stage - have a so-called xtra gun laying around and am going to do something to it - just don't know what. I'll figure this out - maybe. The real trick will be if I have to take the plug and bolster...

    Bore size??'s

    I was going to open my bore with some grooves in it but after much reading I am leaning towards a smoothie. I have tons of wads from clay bird days and was wondering what type of wad to bore fit is usable with plastic wads? My 12ga wads measure out at .71ish I am also going to run RB's and what...

    Austin Halleck

    What history did the company have?? I know they moved around and went under. From start up to shut down. Trying to put it all together - I have a Provo upgrade that is a real beauty - others have not been so Lucky. This info might also help in fixing/finding parts for the various stages of these...

    Austin Halleck Lock ID

    Not all Hallecks were created equal. I have a Provo gun that the quality is second to none. Very very nice and the lock is as nice as they come. I don't think Chambers could even make a better one. I don't know if I got a one off when I ordered this one but everything oozes quality. I would...

    New barrel or Re-bore

    Free GPR to a good home!

    I would clean it and sell it. Buy a custom or semi- custom (TVM,Tip Curtis type) Good Lock Good bbl and breech No-problems In my opinion the GPR leaves alot to be desired.. May cost about twice as much but it'll be 4 times the rifle. :v

    Vent liners

    I have 2 rifles with them and a TVM without. I've been trying to sell the TVM to fund another project but no luck so it's lookin like I'll end up keeping it. If I do I'll change the vent before I even test it out. I would not own a flinter with out one - they are the best!! With the possible...

    flintlock beginner

    I use 3F in anything under 58 if the patch will let me If your patches take a beating try 2F the lower pressure seems to help (in my rifles) Try everything and listen to what your rifle tells ya. No 2 are ever the same. Flint life - every lock is it's own dog. I have a Ketland that is a real...
