    Questions

    Thanks rifleman. As far as a re-finish, it'd be taking some acetone to the stock to remove the old finish, a very light hand sanding with 300 grit and above, and many new coats of Formby's semi-gloss tung oil, rubbed down with 4x wool.

    FF or FFF in .45 flintlock

    My .45 cal rifle is partial to 50 grains of 3F. Never have used anything else. Also use it in the pan without a hitch. Brand I'm using is Goex.

    Questions

    Afternoon fellas; About two weeks ago I traded a Ruger Blackhawk in 45 colt for a 45cal. lefty flinter. It's not from a kit, but rather handmade by a feller in PA.. It shoots a .440 round ball, and employs a .0180 patch to make it .458. It came with a relatively new flint, a brass ramrod, a few...
