    Percussion Ignition Problem

    Not to beat this to death, but one time I tried drilling out a nipple - - ended up twisting that tiny drill bit off in it. Not only did I have to buy a new nipple anyway, but also the drill bit! Save the bit - buy a nipple :m2c:

    Percussion Ignition Problem

    Hmmmm - correct me if I'm wrong Bezoar - but I think you were referring to the top part of the nipple where the cap fits on, not the hole at the bottom. That is usually only a very small hole - even on the "hot shot" nipples. But the bottom hole IS about twice as large on the hot nipples - and...

    How were pressures measured in the 1800's?

    I believe there were three ways for measuring pressures in the 1800's: 1. "Nope, that's not enough powder" 2. Yup, that seems about right" 3. "Ooops!" No, really - all seriousness aside - I don't have the slightest idea. Just felt like saying somethin'. :haha: Hope you get a more...

    Cleaning while hunting

    I have left my Hawken loaded for a number of days without removing the powder and projectile - just remove the cap. I also do two additional things when I do this: 1. Put an old sock over the muzzle (everybody has one without a mate - "the washing machine ate it" :haha:) - I do this to remind...

    Average Price of a Lyman Zouave

    I was at a gun store today and saw a Lyman Zouave .58 cal on the rack for $300.00. It was a percussion - I say that because I don't know if they made it in flint or not. A casual look showed it to be in fair condition - the stock appears to have been refinished and coated with a high gloss...
