Puts my mind at ease. Thanks.

I emailed them and they said they would be shipping it out this week, but still no charge or tracking notice. My fear is they don't have enough supply to fulfill the orders.

I'm brand new to black powder hobby. Wouldn't a fire melt a small hole in a plastic container most BP are contained in, causing a pressure vessel of sorts? If one cooks off I would imagine the blast would cook off other ones. Its not so much as fear of explosion as much as fear of a...

I wasn't realizing we were talking about years of BP stockpiling, I can understand for that reason perhaps. Personally I'm not comfortable carrying more than 5-10lb of powder, If an accident were to happen I would rather lose a garage then half the house haha.

I also work for a restoration, and mold remediation company so I know a little about moisture. I'm impressed that we need a gun safe with dehumidifiers and all these special things that didn't exist in the 1700-1800s, yet we still have decent firearms from that period that haven't rotten or...

Air conditioning already acts as a dehumidifier enough for most of the things you are talking about. This coming from a Floridian where humidity a constant year round. Keep your guns in a climate controlled room, and powder closed and there shouldn't be an issue. The price running a Dehu unit...

My order of 5LBs was cancelled I believe, the charge on my card was removed and I have no email regarding the shipping of the order or cancellation. Anyone else have this experience?

.54 is the more common for the period according to the people I asked when I was deciding, including kibler himself.

Yes, but why that inflation is the way it is and the economy is the way it is will be heatedly debated until the view cows come home and serves no purpose here.

By that you mean the plant fire that caused the plant to shut down? It seems like everyone and their mother is coming on here with their theory on how politics is the reason, when its clear what caused this plant to shut down was a fire. Goex stated on their press release that it is...

Not everyone has the same beliefs. I have disagreements with many the statements people have made here but I try and keep them to myself. This forum is for the discussion of the hobby, not around the hobby and in the country. Rules exist for a reason, we can't just break them because we...

So hopefully I assume correctly: All Muskets are Muzzleloaders, Not all Muzzleloaders are Muskets, Not all Muzzleloaders are Rifles No long Rifles are Muskets, Some Muskets are Rifled. Arquebus is just doing its own thing, but it was a Musket on a stick. A Blunderbuss is basically a Musketoon...

Can you wet 4F and mesh it through a strainer for larger grains?

True, well now thinking back its probably true for me as well. I've had I think 6-7 people say that they want a BP firearm after letting them try one, but none have bought one so far. Every time they go out they say they want to get one but never do.

Companies moved over seas because making things and paying pennies in labor is cheaper then paying Americans who have a higher standard of living. I think Apple pays its factory workers something like $1.62 an hour to make our phones. You can't beat that price and government has nothing to do...

We know the cause of the closure which has nothing to do with agencies, government or otherwise. Unless you would like to provide an article or source explaining why the BP industry is directly been affected by them? It could just simply be lack of interest in our Niche hobby of antique...

They've already moved one or two topics to the politics section where the majority of users can't discuss this issue because people keep bringing up politics. Please for the love of the discussion and this forum, stop bringing up politics, I actually care to talk about this subject without...

Ditto to the above, try calling, or reaching out to the ladies' email address as they respond very quickly. Twas my experience.

Right, at the range it would make sense not to use it, but OP was talking about "In the field" most people only hunt a few times a year.

Isn't this what the patch box on your rifle is for?
