    Real black powder

    I got into front stuffers to shoot real black powder. If absolutely none were available I might use a sub if I really had a need to use a ML for hunting or something but I don't *have* to hunt ML season.... And if you are looking for some Grafs has Swiss, Schutzen and their house brand in...

    Deal alert - grafs no hazmat, BP goodies in stock

    Was picking up some stuff for my metallic reloading and saw on the checkout page that Grafs has no hazmat on "one box" if you order $150+ of powder/primers Currently in stock is Swiss, Schutzen and Grafs' house brand of BP (which seems to be relabeled Schutzen) and they have musket caps as well...

    .32 conicals

    It might work, if you can get the velocity up there but without a reliably expanding bullet kept in its expansion velocity range it wouldn't be too ethical I think, unless you limited yourself to strictly headshots.

    .32 conicals

    Saw some .31 caliber soft lead airgun pellets at a place, I posted about them before but if the diameter is right at least the lead is of the right hardness... https://nielsenspecialtyammo.com/store/

    What is your method to combat offhand wobble?

    Learned to properly shoot 4 position rimfire. Including proper use of a sling. Get a decent 22 setup and attend an appleseed shoot

    We can here in Florida other than a few WMAs but even on those I think a ml rifle is OK (centrerfire verboten)

    Smooth Bore Revolver

    The way the TC pistols in 357, 44, and 45lc handled it was a screw-on "choke" that had straight rifling, to stop in theory any spin imparted on the shot capsule (the TC HotShot rounds had plastic pill like capsules) and to cause it to fracture allowing the shot to disperse normally. And it...

    Which Shot Dipper?

    Empty cartridge cases are good too, 45-70 holds a bit under 3/4oz of #5 shot, a 30-378 Weatherby mag holds 1.75oz unless you trim it back :) (I've got 4, planning on trimming back to make a 1oz and a 1.5oz measure) I've also got a nice stand of black bamboo here at the house, thinking of...

    Empty Scheutzen bottles?

    I have a reloading tray dedicated to this (my other three get sprayed with lube etc) but to quick measure a LOT at once... make sure tray is nice and dry and nothing in the corners of the indentations/case holders (blow it out w/ compressed air). put fresh foil liner on old cookie sheet tray...

    What, how, and if…??? A ramrod question

    Solution is the original or close for show, range rod or other replacement for actual use. Sufficiently long ramrod is not just a loading tool it is safety equipment. Safety trumps originality.

    Maximum loads for 1858 Remington

    With a steel frame 1858, round balls (144gr of weight, not a lot of bearing surface for friction), using real BP the max powder charge is however much you can cram in the hole and still fully seat the bullet. Someone posted some velocity numbers on this forum with various amounts of powder and...
