    Best way to safely remove rust

    I had a muzzleloader I bought for parts at a flea market. Out of curiosity I soaked it in Evaporust. It turned out to be a shooter. Evaporust breaks down the rust but will not damage the metal.

    I recently purchase an auction lot of 5 books and this one was in it. Appears to have been signed by the author George Shumway. Great little book and kind of neat that Mr. Shumway signed it for the previous owner. Do any of you guys know Mr. Shumway?

    Unreliable ignition Traditions Hawken Percussion

    I have a Traditions Deerhunter. Had a similar issue. Are you smacking the rifle a few times after adding powder but before the bullet to make sure you are getting powder into the channel under the nipple? That solved my problem.
