Evening! For sale I have an unfired pedersoli jaeger, I finished out from a kit. First kit I’ve done in some time, and very much enjoyed the process. I’m selling to fund another kit build of some kind, and I guess as long as I don’t loose out too terribly much, consider it worth it, being able...

Reading all the responses ! Too funny! It’s nice to know there’s a large group of guys out there that can relate to this often overlooked but very real part of being a gun nut! I’m supposed to have a “one in, one out” policy that i was proud to announce to my wife when we first met. Since then...

Yep, from what i know the Missouri River is the faster twist, mainly for conicals and bullets. While the Rocky Mountain version has the slower twist for patched ball. I’ve read where guys do fine with round ball out of the pedersoli 1:24 barrels with light loads, but don’t have any experience...

Morning, Just thought it might benefit someone so figured I’d mention. There’s a pedersoli Missouri River Hawken for sale on GB in walnut and .50 cal, priced pretty darned fair if you ask me, considering what they cost new. I inquired about it, and communicated with the seller via email...

I’m on board here. Hawken lines are nice, hooked breech etc very practical. But it does seem in some ways to be a regression, with regards to weight, balance, ease of carry. I suppose they fit their niche though. The English sporting rifle vibe has been more and more interesting to me lately

Man isn’t it something the things we realize we have taken for granted as we age? Age is relative, and I’m not that old, but my eyes just in the last few years have started to change. The rifles I shoot frequently, muzzleloaders and cartridge, are all slowly getting peeps installed! I can...

Absolutely, I’m with you there. Only respect coming from me, I’ve enjoyed the short time I’ve been participating in this forum, I think it’s very cool and know there’s a lot of neat people here. I guess to your point, it’s the exaggeration part that I’m speaking to, and looking at with some...

Hey fair enough. That’s what makes these forums interesting, people’s opinions, experiences that they’re derived from, and conversations that ensue. Curious what specifically you’re in disagreement with ? Ill do my best to explain my opinions and where they come from if interested. I thought I...

Oh ok yep I know what you mean, thanks for reply

That’s really nice looking. Love the subtle patina both on wood and metal

Lol too funny. But on the flip side of that we can reference another classic movie, when Arnold says “if it bleeds…we can kill it….” !! all joking aside, a .54 cal round ball wouldn’t be my first choice, given what’s out there and available, but within limits would still do the job. Bears tend...

When you say, attack the lock panels, what are you referring to? Honest question, got me curious?

Hello all, My names Ben, and over he last couple of years have gone through a re-entry, as I’ve referred to it, into muzzleloaders. I’m a commercial pilot and big game guide up here in AK, and due to the nature of my seasonal work, have some down time in the winter. I’ve been putting a few...
