    1860 Army

    Well, I went with an Uberti 1860 Army and it is GREAT! Thank you for all the input. It has a small amount of creep before the hammer falls, but it drops at 2 1/4 lbs! Shoots very good groups at 25 yards and have had no misfires or mechanical issues. I love the look and feel of the longer 1860...

    1860 Army

    Hi, I am looking to purchase an 1860 Army revolver soon and I have done as much research as I can on the internet, as far as brands. Can you tell me what you feel is the best made 1860 Army and why. I have been looking at the Uberti, Cimarron, and have tracked down a few Colt Signature models. I...

    Sighting in

    I had the same question with my TC Hawken. I am new to muzzleloading, but not shooting. I have always used a 6 o'clock hold with my M1 and other rifles, as well as pistols. I have been shooting my TC extensively lately and I am thinking that with the little bead on top of the front sight...

    TC Hawken

    I am never satisfied, hahaha. I am not new to shooting, but I am new to black powder shooting. I do not know the capabilities of the TC Hawken. I will keep working at it.

    TC Hawken

    I will certainly work on that as well. This rifle is a lot different than my Anschutz and M1, which shoot small groups.

    TC Hawken

    So, is a 2.87" 50 yd 5 shot group decent, or should it be better?

    TC Hawken

    Well, today I took my Hawken out and shot from the bench. I held at 6 o'clock, with a white paper plate as my target. The distance was 50 yds. I got a 5 shot group of 2.87". I was shooting a Speer .490" round ball, ox yoke .015 shooting patch with Bore Butter and 55 grains of FFFg Goex black...

    TC Hawken

    Well, just got back from the range. It was pouring rain, but my wife and I shot from under the eve. I put up a paper plate at 50 yds and shot from the bench, for now. I loaded up with 55 grains of FFFg and a .490" Speer round ball with a .015" bore buttered patch. I capped it with a CCI #11...

    Thank you all very much, I will follow all of the advice and guidance given. I really appreciate it.

    TC Hawken

    Thank you very much for the link, I was looking for that for quite some time. So FFFg powder will work fine, or should I get some FFg powder? Will one granulation shoot better than the other? Thank you for all of the replies!

    TC Hawken

    Hello, this is my third post, as I just joined this great forum. I have acquired a new TC Hawken Percussion .50 cal. I will be shooting patched round balls out of it. I did not receive the box or any instructions with it. I have shot flints in the past, but they were .32 and .36 cal. I have...

    Cabela's Blue Ridge and Pedersoli Frontier

    Thank you all very much for your help. I went ahead and ordered from VTI, however, I will attempt to make my own ramrod. Thank you again.

    Cabela's Blue Ridge and Pedersoli Frontier

    That is a great site. Do you know if the parts are interchangeable? Or were you referencing me to ask them? Thanks.

    Cabela's Blue Ridge and Pedersoli Frontier

    Hello, I am new to this forum. I have acquired a .50 caliber Cabela's Blue Ridge Flintlock. It is missing its ramrod, thimbles, thimble/barrel mounting screws, hammer jaw screw, and the vent. I was wondering if the Blue Ridge rifle (Pedersoli) and the Pedersoli Frontier rifle have some of these...
