    Anybody do rust browning?

I have heard of people who take a polished barrel and rubbing bleach on it which is highly corrosive.Buy all means I am not suggesting anyone do this. I have never done it myself. It just seems foolish to me to...

    Anybody do rust browning?

    I do both in the white or browned . What ever the feller wants. I use Dangler's with a diffrent twist . I use a damp box and really card with 0000 steelwool. It comes out brown with a red tint. If any one tries this make sore you rinse your steel wool with alchol it has a lot of oil in it.

    I have heard many good things of bill larges rifles and barrels. Is this flint or percussion? You should have a shooter. I picked up a bench rifle barrel with a false muzzle last summer. Why I don't know. I guess because it had W M large on it. ha ha

    I've had black and I'm not going back

    Good for you. I learned a long time a go that bp was far more reliable than pyrodex. pyrodex cost me a deer in my early years. That was enough for me. Clean your rifle good and bust a cap or flash the pan and you will have ignition every time.
