I doubt that but it can't replace the fun factor of the black powder gun.

I also have the Super Companion and it's probably my favorite of my BP guns. Weird thing though is that I have misfires with the Remington 11's but it seems other people don't. I also wasn't aware of using #4 shot but I'll be buying some now. I use triple 7 in mine and get close to 22lr velocities.

I'd definitely just make one from a piece of drill rod. Shouldn't take much time and you get the satisfaction of making something that works.

They're supposed.to be though. And they hold my 3D printed number 10's.

Number 10's.

This one is a CVA. I believe Traditions used to make them also.

I've been wanting one of these for a looong time but they are always out of stock or discontinued but I regularly check gunbroker to see if one pops up and finally I came across this one. I ended up getting into a bidding war with somebody else so I paid a bit more than I wanted but at least I...

I acknowledge that cnc has a place in society amd that it's commonly used in day to day life. I just personally think it takes less skill than what I do and don't see how anyone can get gratification from button pushing, but then again as you stated, you only care about profits so I reckon it...

The modified loading stand works good. I only had to turn down the bullet seater in the lathe.

Just my humble opinion but I don't understand the hype. Muzzleloading rifles are about as simple as they come. And maybe it's just because I'm a manual machinist but heaven forbid if I ever take up cnc, I hope someone puts me out of my misery.

I've done alot of research on the subject and even my own testing enough to say for certain that: Chain fires don't happen from the rear of the cylinder. Ever.

I was in the classified section but didn't bypass Amazon so my post was removed. But it's easier to purchase from Amazon anyhow so there's no sense in me going about it the long way.

Took all of a few minutes to make these.

It's funny how people's taste can differ so much. I can't stomach the body lines of those. Evertime I see one it reminds me of this

You can find some of my previous posts about the subject, as I've gotten pretty efficient at making them and have a good process. I also sell the cups in a kit to make it even simpler. DIY Percussion Cap Cup Assembly Kit (11) https://a.co/d/76NOKEb

I dont recall where I read it and if it's true but I read that reenactment caps aren't strong enough to set off actual BP charges.
