That explains a lot regarding the whole PC issue. Shooting ranges have a lot of rules that are not PC! :confused: While I like to use natural materials myself, Good on the OP for figuring out a way to make smoke where there are rules regarding how that smoke is made and not giving up on the...

Pictures please! :)

Tsaan Wookkuh, THBailey!!! Well the proof is in the pudding!! I would say 1 1/2 oz is just right! If that shot is in fact heavier than lead, than the smaller size equated to a larger payload hitting the target! Thanks for sharing. On a side note since I'm moving back to Nevada, I may have to...

Never hunted Cali but there are some places that intrigued me when I lived in Nevada to go try. Especially for turkey since they are so few and far between in the silver State. I actually even contemplated building a special flintlock to shoot all copper bullets. since all my flinters shoot...

Tsaan Wookkuh!! Good Job!! - Comanche I'm jonesin' to hunt turkey! April 15 is our opener and you can bet I'll be sitting under a tree making turkey sounds!! Great Bird and Hog!! Thanks for Sharing!!

That sure does sound like fun!! Hunting any of those species with the old Rock lock would be a Hoot!! But like Brokennock, this year will not work for me. But Its something to plan for next year for sure!! Please keep us posted Is this the usual time of year that you do this? That way I can...

Here is the finished product! Charred Punkwood!

Here is the Vent Smoking. As I said before, the hole in the body and the hole in the lid line up to make the char.

I went out for a stroll looking for bunnies and decided to make some Char and snapped some pictures. Here is the Raw Punkwood in the Char tin

I used to throw a mouse hawk with the handle cut to the same length as my throwing knife. That way you can throw them from the same place. If the Hawk handle is longer than the total length of the knife, One must adjust their distance from the block. With a full size hawk it looks kinda funny...

You can get a bag mold from Callahan http://www.bagmolds.com/UNZIPPED/htdocs/1.shtml They are $50 for standard sizes and $70 for custom. .550 would be custom and it has a sprue cutter. not for mass production of RB but you can whip up 20 or so relatively quickly. I personally love bag molds

I do not want to discourage you, because it is an amazing feeling to fashion a rifle! But, Without the tools, I believe it will cost you the same as a custom rifle. Barrel - $200+ Stock -$100+ or Precarved stock - $250+ lock - $170+ trigger - $10-$60 single or set Butt Plate -$20-$40 trigger...

The skychief load works for me, but I think this would be an even tighter pattern due to the addition of the cup! Thanks Brokennock!

I have all the parts to build a 36 cal flint longrifle. I have a CVA Varminter in 32 that I converted to flint that I love to shoot but I like the long rifles better! Welcome and Good luck with your endeavors!!

Great!! Thanks!!

Shiloh1944, where do you get your nice handles? I would like a Curly Ash one for mine.

I was just about to say, My Smoothy likes a lubed felt wad under the patched ball for best accuracy. If I do my part it can clover leaf 3 balls at 50 yards (off the bench)!!

Thank you Grenadier! That's what I wanted to know!! Since I no longer have the Inkle Loom I will make a Tape loom. And Also get back into Finger weaving, since that is what this post was about! Thanks again for the video!!

Nice Work! I had stayed away from cold steel Hawks, and I don't even know why but saw some cool customized versions and decided to buy one. I went with the trail hawk for the size and weight an then took a little bit off the underside of the blade to give it more of a "Hawk beak" like the pipe...
