I'm fairly new to ML as well. I recently purchased a T/C Hawken .50 flintlock in near perfect condition for $400cdn + $50 shipping, Three years ago I bought a Browning JBMR .50 percussion. The seller included so many extras, the rifle cost me well under $200. If you are patient great deals on...

I think that is the second best point made here so far. It's second only to Dale's post about Kim Go Eun! ;-)

To each his own. I once knew a guy who had more than 50 motorcycles. He did not ride any of them. He looked upon them as works of art. That drove me nuts, but it was his money, his life. If I have a bike I don't ride, a guitar I don't play or a gun I don't shoot, it get's sold eventually. I do...

That sucks

Fatboyz...Rem #10 has same internal diameter as #11 rem + #11 cci...I think the Rem #10 might work as replacement for #11s (?)

I just picked up 5 tins delivered to the Ottawa store. Thanks bat119 for the head's up!

I saw this while surfing. I have no interest in it, and know nothing about it. But I thought that at $100cdn (approx $75usd) someone might know what it is and want it. Don't contact me with questions (i know nothing), but I do live near the seller. If I can aid in any transaction, just let me...

Awesome. Thanks Bat, just ordered 5 tins.

I presume you are proud of your rifle and the photo. You have good reason to be. Late last century, I took some motorcycle photos at Daytona and posted them on an online forum. I spotted one of them a couple years ago because someone had grabbed it and copyrighted it. Ask for a photo credit...

In my 20s and early 30s I worked around Hudson Bay and Baffin Island. I would frequently shoot unmentionables in any temperature, frequently around -40. Now if it's below freezing, the guns are sitting snug in the safe. Some might say I've grown weak, I'd say I've grown. Merry Christmas to...

But does it slice turkey? Inquiring minds want to know!!!

I recently posted this question/thread in the smoothbore forum and received many great answers... Why a smoothbore? It might be of interest to you...https://www.muzzleloadingforum.com/threads/why-a-smoothbore.154663/

Thanks Jackpine...I thought yesterday that we could say 'welcome to the spark side!'

Just one Flash-Boom was all it took! What suprised me most, besides the accuracy, was how little the flash distracted me. Before each shot there was a slight tension as to whether I properly performed the required tasks that would allow the flint to spark against the frizzen, thus igniting the...

I used Schuetzen 4f (as well as my flintlock) for the first time yesterday . After 10 shots, a small amount of fine, light grey powder remained in/around the pan...a light brushing took care of it. No scubbing or scrapping required. I'm a newbie so I have nothing to compare it to.

I finally took my T/C .50 Hawken flintlock all the way! I feel like a man now! I was needlessly apprehensive about the pan flash...I hardly noticed it! I loaded 70gr of 2f (schuetzen) with a .495 ball and .015 lubed patch. Rifle was primed with 4f. I took five standing shots at a 8in plate at...

NorthFork The 'lower depths' of Dante's Inferno is where all the cool kids hang out! I think I will likely end up with a smoothbore after learning the ropes with my recently purchased flintlock (I'm taking it out tomorrow for the first time). The versatility is simply too appealing. The way...

I ordered a Pietta 1862 .36 in June. It arrives tomorrow! So that means my knowledge is purely theoretical (large grain of salt required). I found Pietta loading information here (page 19)... https://taylorsfirearms.com/media/site/pietta_black_powder_manual.pdf They suggest 9-12gr of 3f for a...

flconch...that wouldn't go over well with the neighbours. Great idea though.
