Another welcome from Texas!

Hola Fellow Texan! What part of the Lone Star State do y'all hail from and did you miss that hail storm 'tother day?

I echo Mr. Compton's sentiment. Welcome to the forum!

Do you have to get a new grip frame for the bird's head grips or are the original modified?

Welcome from my hill! Texas has some mountain wannabes but we don't hold a grudge. Enjoy the forum.

We do discuss the cap and ball revolvers and there is a forum for handguns that is dominated by that subject. Maybe you can get a sidelock rifle for hunting. Welcome to the forum!

Welcome from Hutto, Texas.

This thread has been going on for a year and I didn't contribute? Shame, shame, shame. White Smoke Brigade, I have been a member for 8 years and have never regretted a day. Great bunch of guys, the monthly shoots are for bragging rights and are informal (but safe).

R Ellis is correct. Be aware that if you install it upside down the ramrod will be locked and you will have to remove the lock and then the barrel to reposition it the correct way. No brainer, though. Enjoy your rifle, these are good shooters.

Make the caliber the same as your rifles. You won't have to have two sizes of ball. If that's not a problem then have fun.

Welcome from Central Texas!

Built mine from a kit and it is a great shooter. One of the best CVA guns and one of the best Production guns made.

Dutch had an excellent method of working up a load by methodically changing variables one at a time. That is a tried and true method for many things. I have tried Dutch's method with good result but when it came to the dry patch method I had some reservations. I have since learned that a wet...

As Jed Clampett said about Jethro, that he needed triggernometry 'cause he was the worst shot in the family. 🤣

That's one of the early ones. It has a four screw patch box. Good deal!

Nice video. Hated the music but I enjoyed the idea. Hope mine turns out as well as his.
