I'll take this.

The BPI might be worth a try depending on how it's sized. I thought you meant a conical akin to the T/C maxi which would surly tumble.

Doubtful. With no spin to stabilize, it'll tumble and fly who knows where. Now if you were able to cast a hollow base slug similar to the Foster shotgun type you might have something.

Yeah, I got a little excited. Might be looking myself.

Zombie thread guys; c'mon...

Disagree all you want, it doesn't make him wrong. Think 24,000 is a lot of shooters? How many of them have money in hand and are clamoring for an American built sidelock that they'll have a hard time finding caps for? The membership of Long Range Hunting, Accurate Shooter, and 24hr campfire...

Man that's pretty

You don't honestly think they're going to resume making traditional style muzzleloaders do you?

Yeah, just like Thunder Clap

Thanks for the nice words, folks... That's kinda what I was thinking. I wanted to see what the wood would look like darkening on its own (mostly). I was going to let the metal just do whatever without outright neglecting it. I might have cheated a little though and wiped some dirty patches on...

This is my Colonial in .54 stocked in cherry. I was convinced I needed a brass patchbox, so I went ahead and took my best swing at it. I was regretting that decision about 4 hours into the process, but now that it's finished, I like it and I'm glad I did it. I initially wanted to do the dark...

I've got a new Colonial that needs to be fired. I'll take the chronograph along and let you know. I think he was burning Swiss though. I only have Goex and Schutzen.

.54 Kibler Colonial breaking 2000 fps...

SPF, thanks
