    Stuck Minie - Live Charge

    Alright. Got it out. 1. Tried to ram it down further. Failed. 2. Tried to pull it. Failed miserably. 3. Primed it, and pulled the trigger. Easy peasy. Yes, I was very apprehensive about it. Just had to keep telling myself an engineering maxim: "The worst decision is no decision." I needed to...

    Stuck Minie - Live Charge

    Not a bad idea. I just have no vice (tool that is). Nor do I really know anyone who does around here. As for the range rod with T-handle, I don't know where to get a quality one.

    Stuck Minie - Live Charge

    So the consensus seems to be NOT to even attempt pulling it? I should either 1) first try to ram it the rest of the way and shoot it (I'm dubious about getting it any further in) or 2) kill the charge and use the discharger. Hmm.

    Stuck Minie - Live Charge

    Hello all, Recently, I shot my 1853 Enfield repro for the first time with live ammunition. I had purchased minie balls from DGW and planned to use them without lube for accuracy's sake. Therefore, while loading, I simply poured the powder down and followed it with the minie, rammed. The fifth...
