Hello to all. ...lifelong shooter who got my first taste of blackpowder in the early 70's, shot metallic for 45 or so years and now finds myself drifting away from metallic cartridge and gravitating more and more into the cap and ball realm.

Good for you. I shoot all types of firearms, both modern and black powder so I know each type well. I got hooked on muzzle loaders a long time ago. My collection of both types has grown over the years. The slower pace of the black powder world keeps me based. No rush, enjoying the loading procedure. You learn to slow down, it seems like if you hurry too much, it's easy to make mistakes.
