    Graf Powder

    I tried a couple of pounds of it last summer. Its pretty good for me. Grafs (Wano) powder is compareable to GOEX in burn and energy. I Chrono'd loads with my rifles and Grafs(Wano) and goex were within 5fps of each other shot for shot. I liked it enough that I went for a whole case of...

    ROUND OR SQUARE PATCHES ?

    All I use is square patches. I have tried all ways(cutting at muzzle,Round store bought,and square hand cut). All had the same result Chronoed the same and same POI. Square are easier to cut with common tools found in most homes/camps. :thumbsup: :m2c:

    Missouri squirrel hunt

    Tipton is just a hop and a skip from me but Im afraid my 50cal and 54cal would be slightly too much for tree rats. :what: Im looking to build a 45 this year that would be more in line for tree rats.

    Flintlock Brands

    I'd go with the Siler myself. Jim Chambers also gives a great warranty with his Silers. L&R has given quite a few people trouble with soft frizzens and some poorly tuned locks.
