    Ignition Woes

    Make sure your hammer is on half ****. That way when you ram the ball home, it forces air through the nipple and carries powder into the flash channel.

    Would you trust these threads?

    Traditions uses a metric thread M6x1. I think Thompson Center uses 1/4"-28.

    2024/2025 Squirrel Hunting Thread...........

    I went out Saturday morning and I had 3 of them pop up from the weeds about 10 feet from me. I didn't think that was a very sporting chance at ten feet, so I gave them a pass. I ended up shooting 3 by the end of the day. They seemed to be fairly active that day, but the wind made them hard to...

    3F in a .54?

    I tried 2f in my .54 GPR and I didn't get as good of groups as I do with 3f. Also, 3f flows better in a powder horn with a smaller opening.

    Who Hunts Reg Seasons With Their Muzzleloader?

    Think it’s ready, .54 GPR

    3F in a .54?

    I use Goex 3f all the time in my .54 GPR. I use 35gr for target/small game and 75gr for deer. I wouldn't see a need to go over a max of 90gr 3f for anything. I think you are just wasting powder beyond that.

    Newbie Question: Which side of the patch do I grease?

    Yes I do. I then put them in a little sandwich bag to keep them clean and keep the grease from soaking through to something else.

    Newbie Question: Which side of the patch do I grease?

    In all reality it won't matter much, because your grease will soak through.
