You have to be a much better shot with a bow

I heard some folks blowed up them stones there. Not sure how, or why, but keep yer powder dry Just in case

D.O.P.E. Data On Previous Engagement What a dumb name for a mail bag.

Call the cops he stole it

I do powder, wad, RB. Putting the wad in front makes no sense. Compressing the powder is key. The wad works well for that, even tho the ball indents the other side of it. Even the cap & ball I use the powder drop. Makes way tighter paper cartridges. Ive only gone down to 20gr of 777. My...

What a fine patch box. I already have one or brass. It turns green. This one will not.

I bought some 45 cal ones at a gun show. Just put them in water turned up the heat and my worries melted away. While they are still warm, dropem in a pan of lube and they will lube themselves.

Yuppers. custom is a wide meaning word. I prefer home made. If Kebler was around when I built my flinter, it would have his name on it. The lock is 90% of it. So many threads here about can I fit lock band X on my production gun. I got my first flinter in the early 90s. After a few years of...

Front sight is modern, and your barrel is too short and most likely the wrong twist for round ball. My one bit of advise is never use pastorium based oils or grease in or on it. Hard loading is a direct result of petro based oil in the works. Ive used T/C 1000+ for decades now and can shoot...

Some of the stuff I read above makes me shiver. Dont shoot my 1860 as much as Id like to. dang work keeps me too busy. Before I shoot I coat everything that rotates with bore butter. When I do, when Im done shooting, I have a bucket with windex in it. Everything put the wood grips go in. When...

58 cal isnt cheap, 40 or 45 is cheap. Make your own. We do. More balls per pound. Less powder too. A rock to start everything is cheaper too. You have better luck finding big foot than caps. Custom barrel is a loaded word. Ive got a 45 cal 1:60 twist swamped, stress relieved, .012 radius...

Howdee from the land of the Rain-de-vue. That be little Rock, just south of Oly. Rain-de-vue is in February, down here. In Monroe is the trade fair in March. Rondy season is from Oak Harbor to Little Rock. Lots to do here in the pacific north wet!

Right hand, pinky pull, when raining the one next to the pinky also

Id rather miss hunting season than ever buying another production gun again. My Pedosorry was the worse firearm I ever owned. Its been gone for over 25 years, and Im still mad I bought it.

Battery as in beating them over the head with your rifle. Cant fit a ever ready anywhere on my flinter

Tung oil, 5-7 coats, hand rub each, steel wool on the 3rd or 4th coat.

Still do not see links, Im blind and the puters broke.

Saw a nice buck in the rain last week, put my foot on a downed mossy tree trunk to get into a modified kneeling position and I did the spits on the log. The deer might not of heard it, but he did hear me f bomb as I racked myself on the log. Glad I had not cocked it yet.

Dang Jack you had all my favs, cept Dixie Gun Works.

Sacrilege! Where's the eye bleach
