    Projectiles for rifled barrels

    Keep in mind that a full on lead bullet might be too heavy and cause too much pressure depending on your gun. Ive seen guys use a mold that makes a pellet type bullet with the hollow skirt to cut weight.

    Some historical context concerning the Brown Bess musket

    Now im not citing anything historical here but sure why not reuse good parts. If a part fails, lock stock or barrel, reuse whats still serviceable and keep it going. Think of when the US moved to caps, we didnt throw away the flinters, we converted them. Or after the civil war with the Allin...

    All this talk of Enfield rifles got me thinking

    I have a pedersoli 3 band and theres nothing wrong with it and probably the most correct of the current makers. PH is great if you can find one too.
