A piece of black electrical tape with a pin hole is pretty similar to the EyePal disc.

If you are having trouble seeing the sights you might try an EyePal stick on disc on your shooting glasses. Your mid-barrel rear sight should be about pistol distance I'd guess. Also you might try safety glasses with just .5 adjustment to enhance the rear sight without blurring out the target...

I think you can purchase it here Black Powder Rifle Accuracy System by Dutch Schoultz Ebook | eBay

Track of the Wolf’s online catalog lists a shorter 1/4x28 for TC rifles plus the longer one you have for general use. I also think your longer one should be fine.

Mine is browned steel framed .50. The drop in the stock is comfortable for me but the fine front sight is becoming a bit hard to see. (when I got reading glasses the eye doctor chuckled and and said I was just the right age).

message on its way, don't know age.

I have a Navy Arms (Pietta) Remington 1858 with the adjustable rear sight. Looks almost new, may be unfired.

I bought one recently for $400, but mine has the screw in adjustable tang sight.

Tang sight looks like a Thompson Center.

Check out Accurate Bullet Molds, they have a large catalog online. I have two and they are nice molds.

This year I've started using 0.5 clear safety glasses to sharpen up my focus. I've also considered a wider front sight and a 6 o clock hold on my Pedersoli Tryon, the factory sight is pretty narrow.

I've started wearing 0.5 safety glasses to sharpen up my view of the sights, it's worked pretty well. Previously I had bifocal reading/safety glasses so I could more easily focus on the muzzle while loading.

8 - 1.25 mm for my Italian made Parker Hale musket 5/16 x 24 for my Zoli Zouave thread sizes are all over the place, I have saved some old Dixie Gunworks catalogs for reference

I've started using baby wipes to swab the barrel every few shots. Takes the worst of the crud out.

Northeast Trade Co. has some stout range rods, ordered one recently for my .58 muskets.

The butt plate says offhand rifle, 1 1/8" barrel weight and my poor left shoulder say bench rifle (.50, 1-48, false muzzle, made circa 1970 I think)

Look like cardboard Hahn tubes for a percussion Sharps, available from Hahn machine works.

TC Hawken rebarrelled with a .40 1-16 twist, globe and tang sights. Have hardly shot it, keep getting rained out this spring.

So it will reproduce the bullet after the paper tube was removed for loading - what diameter bullet are you aiming for?

The Gardener bullets flange was pressed around the base of a paper tube using a foot operated die, the tube was then filled with powder and tied off. I've read of some reproduction Gardener press being made. I wonder if a push thru die similar to what Lee makes would work?
