Had no children to pass it on to. So he wanted it to go to good use and a good home. He said it was built in 1796. It has a Damascus...

    How far will the hot gases expand?

    I’m designing a muzzleloader. How far will the hot gases from a 0.06” hole expand? I’m not talking about the reach of the jet, but the expansion of the jet (look at the picture). And just for curiosity, how far will the jet travel?

    Hello everyone! I'm new to muzzleloading and recently found out about muzzleloader kits. The ones I'm looking at are the "Traditions" ones as they're fairly cheap.

    Unknown flintlock muzzleloader

    Hello, I recently acquired an old flintlock muzzleloader from my past father-in-law. It appears to be a Kentucky long rifle. The only marking it has is on the barrel, G.
