That's cute

Thank you. I should have put myself in the picture and made it beautiful instead of just cute. I am however looking forward to using the lube that is pictured with all the other stuff.

Only teasing you I just finished processing 25lbs of powder myself.

Only problem is some jurisdictions have limits on amount you are allowed to store by the local Fire Marshal or state laws. Depending on where you live some things are best kept to ones self JMHO

Home insurance payout might be a real problem too if your house catches fire. Too much powder, primers, caps etc.

Same for if a fireman (not PC firefighter) were to get injured in the blaze.

I can't believe some of the..... crap... that people post for everyone to read.

I can't believe some of the ....... crap.... that people post in response to crap they shouldn't be worried about..

I feel bad for you people who live in jurisdictions where this type of a post is a problem or offensive to you. And to think that if I just didn't post about it on the internet all of the problems associated with storing accoutrement would just go away. I didn't ask for legal or life advice.... and just to make it clear, no where am I breaking the law. And how do you even know any of this crap is in my house? Get out from under your rock, take a breath and find something to be happy about instead of waking up every morning to log on the internet and hunt something to bicker about....

you would really get triggered if you saw all the other stuff I have put away...... Oh no... There I did it again......

Now just make sure you wear the proper facemask to keep from breathing in that toxic, addicting smoke!

You can never have enough powder, percussion caps/flints, and lead. You just never know.

So…. You come on my post and attack me for posting on a subject that offended you, I give you some grief for it and reject your unsolicited legal advice and now I’m the one that needs to lighten up? Let me guess, Biden/Harris 2024 for you?

Nice looking pair of rifles, good for you making time to shoot that much, relaxing I bet. For those who might raise an eyebrow to your powder supply the attached photo shows a bit of my consumption, there's more where that came from.

WOW I'm impressed! That's a whole lotta fun there! I'm glad I live in Idaho where we're still free people! Store and shoot all we want. I do it responsibly. I want it to stay good.

I just make it as I need it anymore. Keep 5 pounds, maybe 500 caps, and a dozen flints ready on hand and the rest is in separate chemicals, or chunks of rocks. 1. it's cheaper than buying, 2. it's safer than having 100+ pounds of powder lying around for the year, 3. No issue with people out looking for trouble (police and nosey neighbors), 4. The components all have other legitimate uses.

Knapping isn't hard, you literally just break bits off until you get to something useable, most people go overboard and try to make it perfect, and ruin the piece. You can also cheat and cut "gun-stones" (doesn't have to be "flint" exclusively, there are other stones that work as well) with a diamond wheel on a Dremel with some water (the knapped are better, but some stones don't knap very well, and need a little more meat to them to hold up).
