    I fall off the wagon occasionally going back on the jugs.

    I'm not ot sure what to say about this one. It looks like the hunting was pretty good near the arctic circle in the 2020 season.

    Thompson Center Hawken Round Ball Barrel?

    Yes, Fox Ridge, not Fox River, was the T/C custom shop. T/C 1 in 66 barrel for $300 sound like a fair deal, good score. I do have a barrel I'd ordered from Fox Ridge for a T/C Hawken. It's full octagon and 28" and drops into the stock perfectly however it is marked Pennsylvania Hunter. It is...

    Thompson Center Hawken Round Ball Barrel?

    A round ball barrel in .50 caliber for a Thompson Center. What model? Green Mountain used to offer drop ins and these are likely to most common. They haven't offered them for a number of years as I understand it. I've seen folks mention Rice but I saw nothing in stock last I looked. The T/C...

    Green Mountain LRH Barrel Value

    Thanks everyone, I sold it to a young fellow I know. Strange, I'd probably never would have used it, beyond the 5 shot years ago, but I still didn't feel good about letting it go. I guess that's why I have so much gun junk around here. Oh what the heck, it's my stuff.

    How long does 1’000 caps last for an average shooter

    I average 30 shots per range visit when shooting a caplock. Add snapping to clear the flash channel to start the day plus a few after range cleaning between shot string say 40 caps per session. At this rate 1,000 caps would last me about 25 range visits or less than one year. The only problem...

    C.S. Richmond Rifled Musket?

    Yeah, I had problems trying to download pictures here. I think my files were too large. I'll fuss with my camera and see if I can reduce the file size. However, you're not dealing with Elon Musk here.

    C.S. Richmond Rifled Musket?

    I picked this up a few days ago for what I thought a reasonable price. I started down the path thinking 1855 Springfield replica but it has no Maynard system. I dug a bit further and I'm thinking it's a replica of the C.S. Richmond except it has a patch box. There is no maker stamped on the gun...

    R. H. Ritchey

    I have one of his Hawkens, a .50 percussion halfstock. I found this rifle on Gunbroker several years ago. I'm not sure if Bob Ritchey moved to Big Timber after I met him in Lewistown. In 1978 I was a young fellow of 22 years working on the Minuteman Program. I met Bob Ritchey through an Air...

    The bore is perfect, as are all the muzzleloaders I've owned since they were new.

    Green Mountain LRH Barrel Value

    I've a perspective buyer for my 15/16" Green Mountain .50 LRH barrel, which has all of 5 shots through it. It's a drop in for a Thompson Center Hawken. I'd like some input on what a fair value might be please.

    Yellowstone bison and tourists, you can't fix stupid and the buffalo are keeping score. This bison is only one tourist from becoming an Ace.
