    WANTED Sante Fe or Ithaca Hawken

    I have a Santa Fe marked 54 but is a 53 I might sell. I shot club matches and Rendezvous years ago with it and won lots of prizes but it’s just to heavy for me now.

    break in?

    There’s gonna be no absolute on this. Some may some may not depending on tooling wear and other things. I bet one never shot worse after a couple hundred rounds. Unless you let it rust up.

    What Caused The Crescent Shaped Butt?

    The saddle ring carbines kind of throw a wrench in that theory.

    Vent pick in the touch hole while loading

    Try it and form your own opinion. I poke after each shot and before I prime and that seems to work well for me as I rarely have a problem.

    Best round ball load for 1/48 twist

    That’s why there were so many replacement barrels made for them. I don’t blame the 1-48 twist as much as the depth of the grooves and wide lands. I don’t have much patience for a picky barrel. They are good deer guns with the LEE Real bullet.

    Strengthen a main spring..

    I would think heating and re-arching the spring followed by re-hardening and tempering.

    A Tale of Two Little Rifles

    Those are gonna be something else! I like that baby spoke shave also, one of my favorites.

    Weight and Balance for Offhand Rifle

    My opinion of the perfect off hand rifle is an Issac Haines style, particularly the Jim Chambers 50 cal B weight Rice bbl with a good 3lb single trigger. Also a similar rifle with an A weight 40 Green Mountain bbl is a fine choice. Don’t get sucked into a set trigger that’s best used for...

    Optimum flash hole distance from breech face?

    Looks good to me, that’s how I do em. No nasty notch for me.

    WANTED Lite Weight. L/H 45-50 caliber percussion rifle.

    Thanks but I’ll remain picky and stay with not over 8 lbs. I just weighed several of my 36 to 50 caliber rifles and they are all below 8 lbs.

    Lock Question

    I have at least one just like it. I’m guessing large siler by Vernon C Davis.

    WANTED Lite Weight. L/H 45-50 caliber percussion rifle.

    Thanks would like to stay between 45-50 caliber.

    WANTED Lite Weight. L/H 45-50 caliber percussion rifle.

    Looking for a good quality left handed 45 to 50 caliber percussion rifle that weighs under 8 lbs, 500 to 1500 dollar range. I have a couple of right hand guns I would trade if interested. One is a Uberti Santa Fe .53 Hawken and the other is a Pedersoli SxS 20ga shotgun. Both are very good...

    Rocks are more reliable than caps

    Sounds about right to me. Don’t forget to add that one piece of silver to your build to keep the Demons at bay😁

    SOLD Sitting Fox LH Trade Gun

    Kind of sniffing the bait on this one. Would like to confirm barrel specs. 36” long and .60 bore, or is it .62 bore? Thanks
