    Dang, now I am going to have to start checking the black locust trees around here. Is this species of locust the only type or does this fungus grow on others like honey locust? Thanks for the education on all of it.

    Rifled to smoothbore?

    Thought about the Hoyt angle with an old barrel I have then figured the wait and cost and thought it would be easier and cheaper to buy a new or decent shape used barrel for less and go from there. I still have one in process of smoothing/reaming out by hand and it hasn't been too bad I even...

    Matchlock barrels

    Matchlocks are becoming more interesting to me and I am thinking about a build. I have an old, tapered, round .58 smoothbore that I am restoring and was thinking about using it. It is 33 inches long. Would this work for a matchlock styled gun or should I just find a full octagon in 50 or larger...

    A rifle that needs swabbed after every shot on a woodswalk??

    Get a old T/C Hawken and shoot it , leave the TARGET rifle in its case. I've never had to swab after every shot if I did I would go crazy. I have shot at many woods walks and the only time I would swab the barrel was when I was finished and was cleaning it. Have fun and just shoot.
