    Filler In Reduced Loads

    I have an 1858 brass frame, what is the consensus on using filler like Cream Of Wheat to fill the chambers? Does it actually improve accuracy? Thanks

    Is My Bird Gun A Deer Gun?

    Baker Shotgun Butt Plate/Pad Replacement

    I left my little Baker Cavalry shotgun in a canvas case stored in a broom closet for about six months. We'll, I took it out yesterday and found that the butt plate was partially rusted and the stock had swelled so it was well proud of the plate. I'm thinking some mop water had seeped through...

    Remington #10 percussion caps are available on GB for about $30 a tin with hazmat and tax. Is this gouging or just the way it is now? Not a cheap hobby anymore. Thanks

    Making A Barrel Fit

    So I ordered this 12 gauge Pedersoli barrel and it doesn't fit my receiver, the dimensions are slightly off. I wonder if it can be made to fit by a gunsmith, or if it's even worth it. Appreciate feedback, thanks.

    Relining A Big Bore Shotgun

    So I have the Zoli 10 gauge (.765). It apparently has some pitting in the bore and I'm thinking of having it relined to 12 or 20 gauge. I like that big bore, but it's kind of an odd duck in my collection. Having the bore size consistent with my other guns would make life a little easier...

    Tow Alternatives

    I can't find actual tow in my area, so I thought I'd try other materials for loading and cleaning my smoothbores. I bought some dried moss from Walmarts craft section. Seemed to work OK, though it did come apart pretty easily. Any recommendations on what else I might try? Thanks
