    Lead Shrinkage Question

    I have a question regarding lead shrinkage when casting. The question isn't regarding pure lead (I bought a custom .495 mould and it casts at .49, so I got that), but rather alloys. What can be added to the lead to prevent shrinking, if anything?

    Funny Muzzleloading Experience

    Apparently nobody at the range I go to has ever seen a flintlock before. Every single time I go, at some point, someone asks if they can get a video of me shooting it. RSO's tend to find it amusing when I walk up because nobody knows that the person to my left and right are about to get smoked...

    Paper Cartridge Question

    General question regarding paper cartridges...how long can they be expected to remain functional before the humidity in the air takes its toll? I can't imagine the paper used being air tight.

    Empty Metal Goex Cans

    I have no plans to get rid of them. Just trying to find another use for them. I could dump powder from a plastic bottle to the metal can, but it's a diff brand and just don't feel right.

    Empty Metal Goex Cans

    I don't really shoot enough to warrant bulk buying. A few months ago, I bought about 8lbs of 3F Scheutzen. 8lbs = 56,000 grains 1 shot = 80 grain (give or take if I'm zeroing in on a load) 700 shots from 8lbs of powder At around 30 shots per range trip (between 2 weapons) once a month, those...
