    Number 11 cap shortage?

    I have musket cap nipple for my TC Hawken not sure where I got from, musket caps seem easier to find I bought some at a gunshow last week, Just another alternative haven't pulled the trigger on any yet I'm sure they will work.

    Did the TC white mountain carbine come with predrilled scope mounts?

    Check the holes and make sure that they did not drill into the bore That was the first thing I thought of after I learned they weren't factory, removed the plugs all good......whew!

    Did the TC white mountain carbine come with predrilled scope mounts?

    I did the cleaning rod trick it's confirmed 1:20 twist serial # 106**, whoever did the scope holes did a nice job doubtful I'll ever scope it

    Did the TC white mountain carbine come with predrilled scope mounts?

    Thanks I never knew TC sold those, I never considered putting a scope on a ML loader however my eyes are getting older.

    Did the TC white mountain carbine come with predrilled scope mounts?

    I picked up a White mountain carbine at a estate sale this is how it came, overall it is in good shape bores perfect a few stock dings a refinish will take of I assume it has a 1:28 twist. What mount bases would fit on this?

    Bullet starters?

    I threaded a 9mm casing to accept 50, 54 jags, a 45 ACP ball starter, a hole for palm saver can be used as a hammer to start maxi balls not historically correct it does make loading easier

    Yep, I'm a sissy.

    You are not alone, I use a magnum PAST recoil shield (sissy pad) for my .54 TC Hawken with the heavy mini balls, you never feel recoil hunting in the field off the bench is a different story.

    Is it uncool to use Pyrodex?

    Due to lack of 3F or any black I tried Pyrodex P in my revolver I will report it works better than black, consistent ignition better accuracy, load triple 7 in my 45-70 trapdoor and 44-40 Yellow boy, 1873 single action I get a lot less fouling

    9mm casings fit on 3/8 rod with a little sanding, they are easy to thread 10-32 the center is marked after the spent primer is punched out, use soft brass rod for a pin peened on both sides. Cheap like borscht
