    Build Time

    building from a plank takes me about 5 months. a chambers kit will be a bit faster than that. I would guess at least 100 hours but probably more.

    Round barrels?

    any barrel maker who makes an octagon to round can also make a full round barrel. you just have to talk with them. might be cheaper because they can turn the whole barrel on a lathe instead of having to turn it and set up a milling machine. or might be more expensive because it is out of their...

    Keeping Muzzleloading Alive

    bashing the youth is not productive. I am only 30 and I can tell you youth of today are different and I don't understand a lot of their trends. but maybe you would be better off taking some time to consider their world view. it will be different from yours and maybe you will have the knee jerk...

    barrel channel plane

    I made myself a barrel channel plane and I thought some of you might want to know how to make your own. I started with a cheap amazon rabbit plane. the first step is to disassemble and to make the body of the plane the width you want. I would go just smaller than the width of your barrel or the...

    Ok ive decided

    Just go for it. I think you will not be happy unless you end up with the rifle you want. it lists a length of pull of 13 1/2 on their website. that is perfectly reasonable for an adult unless you are over 6ft. I am 5'10" and the guns I have built have a 14" length of pull. a little shorter would...

    What "fun" targets are your fav's

    the range I shoot at is paper targets only. but I have gotten approved to shoot tin cans because there is no chance of a ricochet or fragments coming back to the shooter. I built a wooden tree that I suspend the cans from.

    Wood Rod for a .32??

    I use a wood rod in a 32. If the grain is straight and ram it hand over hand it will not be a problem. trouble is when someone used to loading with a steel range rod get careless for a second and grabs it by the end to ram a ball home is when problems arise. I would also recommend using the...

    Is there a resource on the caliber of smooth rifles? were they of similar caliber of the rifles or did they run the same gauge as most fowlers?
