    A bespoke Pennsylvania long rifle

    That's all that really matters. What it means to you is more important than what another's opinion is.

    Muzzleloading after Cataract Surgery

    The FRONT sight should be in focus if possible. The target you aim at will not be. Rear sight will also NOT be in focus.

    Rifle Building Classes?

    Cabin Creek used to have these classes, very popular at the time. Contact them for more info. their idea was to teach you how how to do this - build your own under their tutelage.

    Leather sources

    Moscow Hide and Fur in Idaho. Yeah, I know what you're thinking. I've bought various things from these folks foe several decades. You'd be surprised - tanned hides and hide pieces. You may want some elk leather but not need that whole huge hide, maybe just half. Deer antler and tines...

    Bummer 10-Year-Old Remington Caps Today

    Man that is frustrating. As William Bendix would comment on his sitcom in a previous lifetime -- What a revolting development that is ! Last time out I was getting used to a New Englander caplock. And I used CCI caps that I KNOW ere over 20 years old. Bang every time. I quit Remington...

    TC .50 Caliber Hawken, Renegade and New Englander 1:48 shooters..........

    I certainly will post the results. The barrel was sent to Bobby Hoyt for rework. My issue as I explain to him has ungodly hard loading. Just hate using a mallet to start the ball - 490 with a 15 patch. He suggested changing to radius grooves. Also, explained that those T/C grooves are too...

    Finally connected after many misses last week

    On the other side .... I love that rifle. Looks suspiciously one I just ordered from Mississippi with a 36 inch .45 Colrain. Pushing 76, with issues many of us have, I hope to see it before next Xmas.

    trip from Texas to PA

    If you are going to make this trip I'm sure you will do some planning. Always best to call ahead to make sure the store will be open. No brainer there. In the case of Cabin Creek even more so.

    TVM Late Lancaster .50

    Glad to see your rifle. I just ordered one similar - .45. x 36 straight brl. Would a swamped brl be better for hunting ? Ha - old and short bad eyes and wanted that front sight a wee bit closer.

    TVM Late Lancaster in .45 . . . looking for input.

    I'm getting interested in this rifle with a short 36 inch barrel. Anyone have some input or experience with a setup like this ?

    Drop-in Bore Light

    I could use some help in finding this product. We've seen plenty of photos showing lighted clean and sparkling bores. But I haven't found this little light. Anyone have a line on where I can get one ?
