Thanks all... Ordered the 250 grain mold yesterday

Thank you for the information. I have a CVA Kentucky flintlock in 50 caliber (twist is 1:60), and a CVA Hawken in percussion (twist is 1:48). Sounds like I would be better served with the 250 grain mold....yes/no? I think that is what is being said. Thanks again Jeremy

OK, what is a Lee REAL bullet? Is it any better or worse in a simple CVA Flintlock? I say a mold for a regular 250 grain bullet (.50 cal) and a mold for a 320 grain REAL bullet. Which one would you recommend? Thanks Jeremy

I was wondering about how useful they would turn out to be. Seems like if I brought everything to the range with me, I would need a U-haul. I am working on a simple, striped down setup I can carry in a small bag.

i am new to muzzle loading. I have a .50 cal Kentucky rifle by Traditions. I am using .490 ball and pillow ticking (.015) patch. I was wondering about lubing the patch with crisco. Is that an issue? Thanks Jeremy Bays

Well, I shot the center of the target......in someone else's lane. OK- seriously, I did dial it in and got centered at 25 yards. I'll work on it from here.

This is my first flintlock....and first muzzleloader. I built it from a Traditions kit. I was luck enough to shoot it this weekend with a local muzzleloader club I found on the internet (First Santa Fe Plainsmen of Kansas). About 20 shots and EVERYONE fired (that is a win for me). I have a...

May I have some photos of this gun as well? Thank You!
