    How to start conicals perpendicular so groups don't have flies

    Sizing a grease groove bullet is not a problem and is very common. Luber sizers size the bullet and lube it at the same time. Fleener

    How to start conicals perpendicular so groups don't have flies

    Yes, try the wads from you pistol first. You could use a sizer to get them closer to the size you need. How many thousands are they over? Fleener

    How to start conicals perpendicular so groups don't have flies

    Are you sure that is why you are getting a flyer? Have you tried a wad under your conical to see if that corrects the problem? Fleener

    long range sight issues

    I had Jim Kluskens. aka Distant Thunder out of WI make two custom front sights that I need the extra heights for. He closed his shop, but he might make a front sight still if you ask. I know he has a shop set up at his house now. Fleener

    Nope, not me. Leroy spelled his name with an OR, I am a ER. Without a doubt we were related. I met Leroy at Friendship quite a few years ago. Certainly a great looking rifle and sold for a fairly cheap price. Fleener

    Great Great Grandfather's Manton Shotgun London or Belgium?

    I was thinking that someone once told me that Rose is a barrel maker? I have a unmarked English Sporting Rifle in 12 bore that has Rose stamped on the bottom of the barrels. Fleener

    Widows Son Dave will be able to answer better then I. I think at times they could be a coach, an alternate shooter or perhaps just a guy to make sure they dont run out of whiskey and cigars. Fleener

    Hunting South Africa

    The practice of putting BP into a cartridge to circumvent the haz mat regulations comes up every once and a while. I know people that have done it and I know that there are people that actually seem to encourage others to do it. Sure you can do it and you most likely will not get caught or...

    Hunting South Africa

    I have shot with the South Africa long range ML team. It is my understanding that they can not get BP and have not been able to for a few years now. I assume you have googled black powder shooting in SA? Might be your best bet is to find someone with a pound that they will sell you. Hate...

    45 Caliber Target Rifle

    Frankie: Does your new rifle have a ramrod or no ramrod? I am assuming that it is a sporting rifle not a target rifle. I believe that there are a lot of Don Brown kits that have never been assembled. Fleener

    RIfleman1776 You might be surprised what you are capable with the right equipment. You ever seen the the ram at 500 meters for black powder cartridge rifle shooting? Most of that is done with peep sights. You have the right equipment shooting and hitting a target like that shooting off hand...
