    Preliminary accuracy results with the Thumper Carbines

    Could an over sized 1/4-28 nipple be an option? TOW lists them from .005" to .025" over size in .005" increments. Not Treso but might keep that barrel out of the "broken toy pile". [/URL] Oversize threaded nipple,.260-28, 1/4-28 with .010" oversize thread, for CCI #11 cap, stainless steel...

    TC Renegade 50 cal

    Things I want that the (my) Renegade lacks... Maple stock, double wedges, metal end cap, metal ramrod entry pipe, long tang with screw through wrist to trigger plate. Proper trigger guard, sights, but plate, ect. All but the patch box and flint lock on the bottom rifle. And 54 cal, or 58.

    TC Renegade 50 cal

    Howdy, haven't posted here for some time but always lurking. A recent hunting land purchase by the family has re-kindled my muzzle loading interest. Iv'e had this TC Renegade for a long time but have never REALLY been happy with it, not from a shooting stand point but more from the "authentic"...

    John Browning Mountain Rifle

    This is why I like this place, always a new (to me) idea, to pick up on. I'd realy like to hear more about this. Where can I get a sizing die, and how do you make the hollow point on it? Ever tried it with a .58 ball?

    2f vs 3f

    Hope this is the right place for this. I recently purchased some Jim Shockey Gold in 3f for load development, and instantly noticed it is more coarse than all of my other 2f. For comparison, I have: Goex 2f and 3f Triple 7 in 2f and 3f Pyrodex RS and P The JSG in 3f is by far the coarsest of the...

    Black Powder vs ?

    Hi, I'm in the Dallas area too. I got some Goex fff at BP in Grapevine last week. You'll have to go up to the gun counter and ask for it as they keep it locked up in the warehouse somewhere. I've used 777 too, it's ok but the real stuff is better.

    Reading patches

    Ya....got some in a squeeze bottle ready to go. Bought a yard of pillow tick at the fabric store today. Forgot to take the calipers with me but checked it out when I got home.....right at .018-.019. Seems I read somewhere you should launder this stuff once to remove the starch or sizeing? Maybe...

    Ya, I can see how that could be an issue. I'll get some fresh, dry fabric before the next range session.

    Reading patches

    Zonie, sorry I didn't remember your post about using the moose milk for patch lube while shooting yesterday. I used the moose milk for tween shot swabs instead of patch lube.... :headslap: My patches were pre lubed with wonderlube I think. I did wipe them off before loading as they semed...

    Reading patches

    Got to shoot a little yesterday. GMB-IBS in .50cal for TC Renegade. Pathches @ 50gr. looked good so went up to 60gr. Probaly should have only went to 55gr. Really thought I had something good working after shots #2,3 & 4, then #5 pissed me off so I fired #6 and then #7 & 8 just ruined my day...
