    Jim Chambers flintlock rifle kits

    Got my shipment yesterday and it’s just the barrel. Looking at the Rice website the barrel I got seems kind of odd/special order. It’s a 38” premium heritage swamp with square cut rifling B weight.45. The square cut is not standard on that profile according to the Rice website. This will be my...

    Jim Chambers flintlock rifle kits

    I ordered a left hand Issac Haines 45 with one upgrade on the wood. She told me a year at first and then 4-6 months. Two days after the order I was notified of a shipment coming. Don’t really know what all is coming but seems odd.

    Ardessa Spain LePage knock off.

    I didn’t find much on a google search.

    Ardessa Spain LePage knock off.

    That’s what I’m calling it anyway. .45:cal with what looks like a version of micro groove rifling. Single set trigger feels pretty good in the hand and weighs just over 2lbs. Anyone have first hand experience with one of these? It was another impulse buy last weekend.

    Stock Pietta 1858 .44 Chrono results w/8" barrel

    Thanks, good data. Did the 30gr pyro P shoot the best ? Is that why you have some inch figures below the data?

    .36 Caliber Fans?

    I favor the 36 for small caliber. Shot my best 100 yard groups with it also. TOTW house brand barrel and hoppes 9 plus.

    Jim Chambers flintlock rifle kits

    I was just quoted 4-6 months for a LH IH 45 B weight from Chambers. Suppose I’ll order it and wait 😳

    Ideas wanted for woodswalk Archery competition.

    Last one I set up used plastic bottles of different sizes with a tether string and a stake to kind of anchor them. Judo points are great and no one lost an arrow. Tie breaker at the end was a Kentucky V on a foam block. 2 liter bottle can be spray painted into a ground hog and so forth.

    Rebore to 38 caliber

    Yes I had him do one from 36 to 38 useing .375 pistol balls in it. Never really got it to shoot to my satisfaction so I built up a new .36 barrel for it that shoots real well. I still have the 38 barrel that fits right back in but it just gathers dust these days. But yes he has or had the...

    SQUARE CUT OR ROUND BOTTOM RIFLING?

    Narrow land square cut is what I always bring to table matches. Green Mountain or Goodoien. Yes I do have a couple round grooves that shoot good and a couple that suck. Maybe I could sell them too the (shoots better than I can guys) 😁

    Lead too hot?

    Sound advice!

    Lead too hot?

    The sprue plates are usually too tight on Lee molds. The screw is left hand thread. The vents need to be open and not plugged with burrs or soot. It’s like a drain pipe if it’s not vented it will fill slow. Don’t worry about too hot, hot lead and hot mold is good. If sprue puddle freezes up...

    Lead too hot?

    I’ll stick with your wrong.

    Lead too hot?

    I wouldn’t smoke the mold, I think it’s BS. Also look into some sprue plate lube like bull shop or two stroke engine oil. A little on a Q tip and rub a film on Top of hot sprue plate about every 30 pours. Tooth brush and 409 cleaner to get rid of soot and good magnifying glass to check for tiny...

    Most Popular Caliber

    I believe.50 is the most popular around these parts but I favor the smaller bores like .36 to .40. If I were to have only one it would probably be a .45

    Leatherman Bags

    I have two and they are top quality. I do believe he is going out of business so the used market will be the only source.
