    What lock? Davis Colonial

    Might be something to try someday. I would attempt but I don't know much when it comes to tempering frizzens or springs.

    That's cool but that's parts for a lock you gotta put together yourself?

    What about this lock? I am surprised to find it so close in shape, and design more so than anything else I've found. Edward Marshall's Rifle No. 41 in the Shumway Book

    What lock? Davis Colonial

    Come to think of it Allen had one in his lock drawer at his work bench, for his son's upcoming jeager build. Nice locks. I don't know what they cost but I'll bet they're $450 or more. CNC machines don't pay for themselves making locks at $250

    Read your thread on that gun a couple times! I was hoping you'd chime in on this, that was quick. Thanks Dave I could look at Chris's Germanic lock at the show maybe if he has one with.

    They are nice locks but I don't want a round face on this one. I used a Chambers Virginia before, great lock!

    That is an awesome looking lock, I've looked at them in my searches noticed you can't find them now, and Davis website says not available due to supply issues. That's muzzleloader building for you isn't it!?! That's why Jim Kibler is smart to make everything himself and not outsource a thing...

    I'm picking up 3 barrels at the Carlisle show in a couple of weeks. The one barrel I ordered is a 37" Edward Marshall profile barrel in 58. I plan to build a gun to sell, with large features, a wide butt, and guard. The lock has me held up. I will not use L&R, there's nothing there that catches...

    What advantage to have a smooth bore?

    In Pennsylvania where the law is 44 cal minimum for deer and 40 cal max for small game, there's is no one rifle legal to hunt both deer and small game. You can with a smoothie, shot for small game and ball for deer. That was my plan when I built my first gun, a NW Trade gun. Till I got the bug...

    How tight to patch a ball

    I shoot muzzleloaders because their simple and I don't like overly complicated things. I shoot .015 pillow ticking and a .562 ball out of .58, and I didn't "find" that combo. Its a smaller ball so I knew it would easily work,so I bought the mold. The patch, .015 it loads easy. 70 grains of 3f, I...
