Just broke out my BP rifle last week and dusted her off, after a lot of years not shooting it I got the itch to go back to basics more often. Sometimes I get tired of fiddling with my smokeless guns. I found I still have 6 lbs. of bp and 4lbs Pyrodex. Need to get some patches and a short starter, gave them to my son sometime back. I cast some balls last nite so I am almost ready. Anyway, glad to be here and am sure I will learn a lot from you all,hope I can help someone at the same time. Sorry for my life story, I'll shut up now. :yakyak:
