    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    Took my new 40 caliber out to the range to see how it would shoot at 50 yards. After a little filing on the front sight and a little windage adjustment I got it to shoot a nice group in the 9 & 10 ring. I used 50 grains of 3f Swiss, .395 ball, & .015 lubed patch.

    60 caliber flintlock

    I built this rifle for a friend in 1996. It has a beautiful curly maple stock. It also has a Bob Paris 48 inch, 60 caliber, swamp barrel on it and a Siler lock and Roller triggers, you need to be a tall guy to load it. It balances really nice for as long as it is. It’s only had a few dozen...

I finally decided to build a rifle with it. It has a 40 caliber rice barrel and a Siler lock. Going to the range today to see how it...

    October Postal Match

    I thought I would try the pistol target also. I shot it with my 1860 Colt. Shot the other one with my 25 Cal. Flintlock. At least I could see this one better than last months.

    September 2023 Postal Match Target - Let's Go Bowling!

    This was a difficult target for me. When I posted it at 25 yards,, all my 76 year old eyes could see was the bowling ball. I shot it with my 25 caliber flintlock with 20 grains of 3f Swiss, .250 ball, .010 patch and moose milk lube. The rifle is very accurate and has a fast ignition so if I...

    Traditional Pennsylvania hunt in the late season - anyone?

The most rewarding hunting I have ever done. Now I am 76 and walking is getting harder for me to do but I...

    One year I hunting deer in the Pa Winter flintlock season and while I was tracking some deer in the snow, 3 ruff tailed grouse ran across my path and went behind a bush about 25 yards away. Since it was also grouse season then, I waited a little while and one of them poked his head around the...

    June Postal Match

    Its a 25 caliber flintlock with a birdseye maple stock. I built it about 8 years ago and have more fun with it shooting squirrels than hunting deer. It only uses 20gr of 3f and you can get 350 shots out of a 1lb can of powder with it, so i get to shoot more rounds at the range. I used to mold...
