    Need shooting advice, look at these patches, please.

    I mix a cup of Murphy's with a bottle of Windex 23 oz. size. It works great out of a little spray bottle that's easy to carry around. The mix not only makes a great patch lube, it works great to clean the bore with too. I've used it for many years with no complaints...the Murhpy's just gives you...

    Need shooting advice, look at these patches, please.

    I have used .40's for a lot of years, and never ran into one that wouldn't work good with a .395 ball and a linen patch. I just use my normal mix of Murphy's oil soap and Windex to lube the patch. I like to put the patch on the bore, then the ball, and give it a gently tap with a rubber hammer...

    Long Pistol Barrels

    I think if it were me building one, I would look for a barrel in something close to a 1/20 twist or something close to that. I guess a guy could get by with a 1/48.....but I think I'd prefer a faster twist.

    Traditions Kentucky pistol

    Even a .40 ca. with 30 grains of 3f will do the job....just have to hit em' in a right spot !!

    Traditions Kentucky pistol

    I haven't shot many deer with the pistols, but I have shot quite a few hogs. Normally I used a .50, with 30 gr. of 3f... I limited my range to within about 35 yards.

    Is the Lyman's Great Plains Rifle a Tack Driver ?

    I kind of get the idea that some folks expect him to shoot from rests and demonstrate the best possible accuracy that his rifle is capable of....but Mark is just out having some fun with it, and sharing the experience with others. Loosen up guys and enjoy the video as he is just shooting offhand...

    Tc

    I have had many TC's over the years, but just gave away my last Hawken yesterday. A friend is a very active person with modern ammo, but has never used ML's before. I took him to a match a week ago and he had a real good time. One friend showed him how to load one and had him shooting and...

    venison burgers with a twist

    I sometimes like to mix a little pork sausage with the hamburger just to spice things up a little. Pretty tasty..... Most of the hamburger though ends up in Goulash or meatloaf though....

    Graf black powder accuracy

    Basically what can a guy tell you ?? The powder is good.....Don't know if you are good enough to shoot those kind of groups....Don't know if your firearm, balls, patches, barrel twist and whatever is capable.

    Graf black powder accuracy

    I love the Graf powder and it's the only brand I buy anymore. I must have at least 25 lbs. laying around here...
  16. Stony Broke

    What would you choose?

    I think I'd have to have a .50 cal. Hawken and a .62 ca. smoothbore pistol. The Hawken would work just fine to hunt most anything I needed and the .62 smoothbore would work good on things like squirrels and smaller critters with shot, as well as offer you the ability to use a big roundball as...

    Help for old eyes

    I have to agree with oldwood.....a peep sight just about solves all your problems. Once you get it sighted in, you just look at the front sight and put the top of the sight where you want to hit and bingo !! Once you get set up like this, you don't have to line up 3 things at one time....rear...

    Tc

    I've had a number of TC's over the years, and they worked just fine for me. The only problem I ever had was buying one with a rough barrel, but I replaced the barrel with a Green River and all was just as good as new.....maybe even better.

    FOR SALE ZELLE

    I got scammed with one like this once !! The guy wanted me to pay with Zelle and I told him no I didn't use it....and he said I could send the money via Paypal to his cousin that had an account with them. I bit on it and got totally screwed !!
