    2024 cap update, bad and the bad

    I have an 1860 New Army myself. I have not found #10 Rem. caps for it in 4 years. I have 70 caps left in my only tin. So it collects dust, yes i want to shoot it.

    2024 cap update, bad and the bad

    It seems this will be an on going problem for those who don't have access to the caps. Prices have doubled & this year maybe tripled. I have off set the pressure & stress of this by getting 2 Flintlocks. Stocking up on flints is what i am doing

    Why .40 cal?

    Using my 1:48 twist prb i use 45-55 gr 3f black powder. Using my 1:24 conical shooter i use 50-65 gr black powder. It's mostly about getting good accuracy. I would not hesitate to shoot a deer 50 yds & under with 45 gr

    Thoughts on Percussion Caps

    Been awhile since i posted on this. After being into 11 Maulmart stores in 2 States, i did manage to get 2,000 #11 caps. I am giving my youngest son my T/C .45 Hawken & 700 caps in July.

    Kibler side effect?

    Lets see you said your Pedersorry works & is more accurate. That tells me you favor it over the Kibler rifle, your words & choice not mine. I am not upset in the least. I just told you how to rid yourself of the offending Colonial. My opinion differs from yours on the Pedersorry rifles. Your...

    .36 vs. .44 "Stopping Power"

    Just my opinion but the .36 would & did kill people. Hogs, bears, Deer & on up ain't people. That's why i got my .44 because i want to hunt deer close, say 40 yds. & closer. I know the .44 will kill them

    CCI Caps - CCI reply regarding availability

    Something is broke somewhere. We never had storages years ago & there were more of us alive & shooting a lot. Now the Caps are almost non existent. Only 2 reasons, either the big buyers /warehousing or not being made. Shortages always drive prices higher & more profits. I am tired of the...

    Don't have that answer. I just checked Graf & sons. No caps or musket winged caps. They jacked up my powder by $7 a pound, it's now $39 a pound

    Kibler side effect?

    You must have bought them years ago. The one i got has about turned me against using flintlocks. Pedersorry made today suck n their prices are insane. Just the patient BP is the pits! It's going on the second year of working on this Scout . Who wants to spend couple of years trying to get a...

    Kibler side effect?

    I can tell you first hand the great quality of a Pedersorry, yeah i will never buy another one. There is certainly a place for Kibler's rifles, they are top of the line

    Why .40 cal?

    My ? is why not, y'all have heard of the old .40-65. It was bad news on critters. .40's prb is a killer on deer pick your shot & slobber knock one. To me a .32 & a .36 are strictly a small game rifle up to & including yotes they will do the job. .40's will walk n talk just hit them lungs, heart...

    Why only one?

    Love UnderHammers myself. The problem is not the people hunting with what the State allows. I Insurance Companies pushing hard to thin all the deer herds. My State does not have a per say ML/Primitive weapon season. They allow all CF of certain caliber pistols for past 8 years.
