    What became of the millions of civil war rifle-muskets?

    My father had a Duffle bag of German Lugers when WWII ended. They got confiscated on his way back home to the states.

    I get my .50 cal 460 grainers from Bullshop. They are quality conicals. All within one grain of each other and the sizing is perfect. I get great accuracy with them as well. ~Bullets ~ - The Bull Shop https://bullshop.weebly.com/bullets.html We have been supplying cast bullets to customers now...

    Maryland Goes Traditional

    I got my 48 twist .50 cal TC Renegade to shoot the No Excuses 460 grain conical pretty good. Pushed by 65 grains of 2f Swiss under a wool wad.

    March shoot: Bulls-eye partner shoot.

    This is my first time shooting this contest. It is also my first time shooting a muzzle loader. Does the target print on 8.5" x 11" letter size paper?

    Thank you for the post Artie. I have been watching youtube videos on cleaning and agree with you about the importance of clean, clean, clean! The best ones I have seen have been Idahoron's videos.

    Which percussion caps to use?

    As I said, I am a newbie at this, but it seems that using the magnums may shorten the life of your nipple?

    Which percussion caps to use?

    You're too kind TX-GRIZZ ! I just might buy some from you. I'm going to check with a place that I buy my other reloading needs from tomorrow. I'm not sure if they stock any black powder consumables or not. I'll definitely stay in touch with you.

    Both nice towns. New Braunfels is about 15 minutes down IH35 from my place. We go there regularly. We enjoy Gruene and Clearsprings. I get my sausage making supplies at Granzin's. You ever come down to see the relatives, bring your smoke pole and we'll have some fun.

    Fedex put it on my porch Friday. It looks like next weekend I will be my first chance to get it to the shooting range. Any help/advice is much appreciated. Very nice of you to offer! Finding the most accurate load for the gun is my first goal. I am also very interested in putting a peep sight on it.
