You could use one of these ramrod bushings. I believe Track sells them in different sizes. Pretty easy to make youself . Robin

I remember Jim Chambers being asked the most prevalent cause of lock problems. He was very adamant, they don't lubricate them! I use Mobile 1 oil and Mobile 1 one grease. One purchase of each and my great grandchildren will still be using it, well hopefully. Robin

This place has a for sale section. http://nitroexpress.com/ Good luck!!!! Robin

Gee, you mean like calling TOW? Robin

Pukka, I'm not sure I understand the Ad from Track of the Wolf, Minimum order of eight pieces or eight inches. I'd call them. Robin

I bought a barrel hone from Brownell's, it came with three different grit stones. Worked like a champ. Robin

Thank yo Britsmoothy for the picture. I'm still not sure if I understand the classification correctly. I just took this picture of Goex powder in three sizes The 2F averages about .050-.062, or about a 1/16" depending where on its irregular shape you measure. The 4F measures about .005" before...

You're a better man than I am Gunga Din. Robin

I am curious about the powder itself. Is 4f powder in England the same as 4F powder here in the States, like Goex? Robin

Wow! After all you have tried I would try crowning the barrel by removing it from the gun, starting with 220 paper folded over the end of my finger or thumb, rock the barrel back and forth with one hand while rocking the 220 tipped finger on the corner of the bore. go around it a few times or...

Interesting in that after a lot of experimenting, that is just about the exactly the powder measure I ended up with on my 16 Ga. for my best groups. Robin

Prayers for your pal. God bless. RVN 68-69 Robin

Still available, make me a fair offer. Seems like it would be perfect for a cannoneer. Robin

I made this many, many moons ago and pretty much never used it, I like my horns waterproof. The brass nozzle must be pretty rare these days, I couldn't find one on supply sites today. Its a left hand carry, about 11-1/2" long on the outside curve. Seems like it ought to be worth $150.00 shipped...

Back in the 70's I got a Dixie, left hand, .50, Mountain Rifle. I loved it but it had 'Made in Japan' on the top of the barrel and because of that I never could warm up to it. I sold it and it was many rears before I could replace it. I still like the lines of that Dixie rifle and have made a...

Tis better to give than receive. Made my Son-in-law a British sporting rifle. Robin

I wonder if Balistol is like asparagus? For some people asparagus makes their pee take on a very pungent odor, others not. Some people have no problem with the odor from Balistol, some, like me, it literally takes my breath away! I still use it but until I mix it down with water I have to hold...

To me, a good hard piece of cherry is a joy to work with and carves nice, but in my limited experience, English, or European Walnut is the best carving wood used in gun stocks. Robin

A .45 is a .45 and fully capable of taking a deer, no matter the configuration. I happen to like the Vincent style Ohio guns and have made a percussion in .36. If I get the time I plan to make a flint version in .45 for that very purpose. Robin

Its' been done, just not in the time frame your'e looking for.
