Welcome from Huntsville, AL

My buddy has a 11 degree coning tool that is designed for .45 revolver forcing cones. Would it work on a muzzleloading rifle?

The Garrets also have a functioning Maynard pellet priming system, which was left off all the other repros. The Garrets also suffer from the same gas leak issues as the other reproduction Sharps. I sent my to Larry Flees to have that cured.

Eras Gone Bullet Molds have a few .678 ball molds left in stock.

Yes! I'd buy a 1st Model Long Land Musket! I would prefer the 1756 version with the metal rammer, but would gladly take the 1742 with the wooden rammer. Rev War reenacting has been waiting for a good source of Long Lands forever. Right now, the Rifle Shoppe bag-o-castings is the only option.

Welcome from Huntsville! Where is Alabama are you located?

How early did you pre-order? I ordered one about 2 weeks into the preorder timeframe.

Congrats on a fine shooting revolver. I suspect your accuracy will improve even more with a lighter powder charge. The US Army load was about 25 grains and a conical ball. Most competition shooters are using about 20 grains with a round ball. Unless you are hunting and need the heavy load...

I'm in Huntsville too! Welcome!

Here is an experiment I did shooting water jugs with a .36 conical bullets. I was surprised by the penetration. On another note, an acquaintance of mine was shot by a .36 revolver during a reenactment in Mississippi many years ago. The ball passed through his privates, blew out one tesitcle...

The originals were such a failure that they gave up and went to paper cartridges. They would gum up and seldom threw a consistent charge.

I have two Fluted Cylinder Colts. One is an Uberti and the other is a Centennial Belgian made version. Unfortunately, Uberti makes theirs with a standard 8 inch barrel. For the most part, original early fluted M1860s had a 7.5 inch barrel. Centennial produced theirs correctly with the 7.5...

They do have a rep for anti gun, but I have used them for my mold business since 2017. Last year I had them question my business and threatened to shut me down unless I proved I was not selling guns or ammunition. Is sent them a description of my products and they gave me the green light. I...

Thanks! Keep us informed on your plans. I'm in Huntsville and will drive over if I can.

Here is another similar study using the 259 grain Colt Dragoon bullet.
