    well. to be honest i thought of selling my sks also to fund my new Bp hobby.. but i like having something reliable and you can grab and run with, not worrying about a thousand different things. but then again that is not why we have bp weapons, they are not( not in most cases, i may be...

    As i stated before i am here to learn. I appreciate you taking time to share information. However being a macho with a keyboard is not necessary. I am from a 4 generation family of mechanics and one myself. I just thought if lead was so safe why don't companies continue to use it as body filler...

    well man its why i am on here asking questions, not giving out advice. I know that lead is dangerous as hell to mess with, so i wouldn't think you would mess with heating or touching it more than loading a gun.The only guns i have ever been around are not bp. so of course i have no idea what to...

    Ya i passed on the bobcat. its in decent shape but the guy thinks he got somethin special... and he dont. i bought the 45 cal cva rifle. i know i jumped quick, but i really like it. I however quickly noticed 50 cal is the most popular caliber. I saw these things that looked like a normal...

    400 is reachable i just rather have something simple and cheap where if i mess it up or it gets tore up its ok. trust me that lyman gpr has grown on me, your advice and input was surely no waste. I still know nothing about powder loads, patches and what a ff or fff is. this is why simple and...

    i really want it just to target shoot and bring out on Saturdays. Like i said i keep my sks(7.62x39) for hunting. Also walmarts in my area no longer carry the bobcat.

    I am most likely goin to get a rifle i saw yesterday. It is a .45 cal CVA long rifle, wood stock like a Kentucky(all the length of the barrel but several inches is covered in wood).i know what quality feels like though, the shop has a Thompson Center .50 cal.. wow that is an amazing feeling gun...

    I looked at Track of the wolf, and i like what i saw but i think for starters im going for the Lyman GP 54 cal. at midsouth, it markets for like 350. what are the differences in these kits? what tools does a man need to do a decent job? And what is the difficult part of their assembly? I am an...

    i see. are ammunition availabilities the same? what is your opinion on built rifles, home built i mean? i really am interested in the Plains Lyman, but also a Kentucky or something along the those lines. I only hunt with 7.62x39 and its usually whitetail (aint much else in NC, where i am)
