I have just started to train myself to shoot muzzleloading pistol. I do have many years of experience with conventional modern pistol and with muzzleloading rifle, but none with blackpowder pistol. I have Traditions Trapper. Ergonomics is a challenge compared to say a Glock or 1911.
I believe that I need to follow a regimen of ten minutes daily dry fire. I have scraped the priming material out of some no.11 caps and are using them to "cushion" the hammer fall during dryfire. Seems to work OK.
My question is...Does anyone see any downside to this procedure?
