Well I suppose it (might) make a difference. Due to any barrel moves during firing. The wave or resonance of the barrel fluctuating can affect impact. Modern center fire barrels are sometimes floated to free the barrel of this. I’ve never thought about it since a muzzloader has some mounts such...

Yes sir. I forgot about my white coffee mug that has Davy fighting a bear on it. I drank milk from it to but it’s not in the cabinet yet. I should put it there.

I still have an original Davy Crockett pistol and holster. Plus my Davy Crockett glass. I drank milk from it every morning. It now sets ina place of reverence in the curio cabinet. I was at Friendship when the craze hit with my dad. We camped out the entire week. It was awesome. The sound of...

Here is the bottom line with me. I wipe between shots. It helps me to shoot longer and helps accuracy. I believe that wiping between shots allow more even pressure shot to shot. I will even do a mini cleaning sometimes if I decide to shoot longer. Whatever some may do is up to them. I know...

Property line measurements are a key. Noise. You don’t have to deal with dust issues like ag does. But basically the same type attack

The position of being there first is a good argument to bring. The same has worked for large farms also. Courts have said that the “new “ neighbors should have done their due diligence. That does not mean they won’t make you spend money. I’d get in tough with your state organization ...

They make a great native gun. Shortened barrel etc.

Welcome. Wow. I’d have to dig. No have some but the last time I used those was about 49 years ago. Wow. They are buried somewhere

Good morning and welcome from Indiana

Most people, at least in my experience, pop a cap before loading to clear the channel and maybe dry up any moisture that might be there. Who can answer your question? You know what you use each time you shoot. Personally I would have more than a thousand but that’s me. Minimum of a thousand...

Not sure if it has been mentioned but years ago a plug of tobacco in a jar of ammonia. Let it dissolve and Then apply. The longer it sets the more dissolved it becomes. Try on a scrap first to see how it works. I’ve also used leather stain of British Tan to get a red hue. But most recently...

DO NOT USE PYRODEX IN A FLINTLOCK! Otherwise your next post will be about no ignition or poor ignition. PYRODEX should not be used in a flintlock.

I’ve just used Gorilla grease

Enjoy

Welcome from S Central Indiana

I’m a life member and have been for many years. Mostly to avoid the increasing expense of annual memberships. But more to support the organization and the sport. I also became a 1 of 1000 member a few years ago for the same reason. I owe something to future generations. Organizations such as...
