Here's how I do it. The white thing at 60 yards downrange that disappears is an 8oz water bottle. Hold,hold,hold,squeeze, squeeze squeeze. :) The rifle is my .40/.50 Tennessee.

Maybe take up golf..?

Do you have milkweed in Indiana?

My secret to offhand accuracy involve six words that I repeat in my head..... HOLD, HOLD,HOLD...SQUEEZE, SQUEEZE, SQUEEZE

All October orders have been fulfilled. There is still time to get sighted in before hunting season.

I like the Hawken pattern also and that was actually my first build. Twenty years later I made the full stock flinter. Both are .54 caliber. The split Poplar logs were an experiment to determine if cap lock ignition offers increased power over a flintlock. They both had nearly identical penetration.

Thanks. Here's a better view of the Isaac Haines.

All of my guns are used for hunting. .36 - .54. I make my own for the satisfaction value and enjoy taking them out to the woods.

Yes its a scam. I got suckered a few months ago on some primers. Payment went to a Vietnamese name. Live and learn.

It's glass. Better to make an arrow head.

The 220 grain .457" is intended for the Ruger Old Army. I use the 200 grain version in both my 1858 and 1860 with excellent results and easy loading. I find it load better than the heeled bullet and I can use more powder. :)

Kinda like pressed in checkering vs hand cut. It just ain't the same.

Yes, I know what you mean. I enjoy the challenge and the resulting vanity. The carving of the stock, is after all, the carving of the stock.... and being unburdened by what has been.... This was my second attempt.

I have been delighted with Pecatonica.

Saw that yesterday. Its amazing how much oomph comes from a few grains of priming powder. Now...where can I get a three band Springfield....

Yes exactly. Call the flask a "Brandy Flask".

I like well done hand carving but to be honest, I do not care much for the CNC carving.

Very nice wood.

I like a polished look.

I'm also with Phil. I use inletting black.
