    In need of Goex

    I picked up 2lbs. Of shuetzen fffg at kygunco in bardstown. They keep it in stock if anyone was wondering. But I'm having trouble finding the Cci #11magnum caps. If anyone runs across them locally please message me. Tried bass pro, cabelas, kygunco, and sportsmans warehouse. Thanks for the help.

    Great news. Tried the shuetzen fffg black powder today with regular Cci #11caps and it touched off every time with no hesitation. I'm still looking for the magnum caps locally to try but it felt great to shoot every time with no worry of a hang fire.

I swab the barrel between shots with a lightly damp 90% alcohol patch then follow that with 2 dry patches to make sure the barrel is dry. I make sure the nipple is picked...

    Definitely a thinner patch so long as it doesn't effect accuracy, and swab the barrel after each shot to ensure there is no build up causing the ball to not pass smoothly down the barrel.

    In need of Goex

    Just wondering if anyone knew where I could get some FFG Goex black powder? Don't want to mail order due to Hazmat charge that is tacked onto the final price. I live near Louisville Kentucky. Most places are telling me they don't handle it due to storage requirements. thanks for any help.
