Bought a second .44 cal. BP cylinder for my Pietta 1858 Remington. Gotta wait for the rain to quit before I can initiate it through trail by fire. It will be nice having twelve shots instead of six before reloading.

EXCEPT - it will now take twice as long to reload!

I got my .54 Frontier REALLY dirty today!!!!
Set up a gong at 100 yards and whelped on it for several hours. - I love that ringing!

which glue do you recommend for wooden stock?

Hmmmm...hadn't thought about that. Well, there was a third BP cylinder for sale........18 shots before I spend the rest of the day reloading?

BTW, I have one of those reloading stands for BP revolver cylinders, it cuts reloading time in half. I tried reloading my 1858 using the pistol's reloading lever....once. What a pain in the {behind], those soldiers and civilians were of a different, tougher breed than I am today. I doubt I would have survived. I really appreciate my ancestors now, what they had to go through to get us here.

Spent some time on the mountain where I hunt at, seen 4 one looked too be a decent buck, preparing for the late muzzle loading season which opens on the 18th of the month.

That place has been on my “bucket list” of places to visit for years and years.

Planning on checking out the new rear sight on the back ring of a M1816 with .65 ball and denim patches.

There’s a lot too see…

It’s really hard too believe one man could accumulate such a massive collection of guns and transportation memorabilia…prior too the Internet..

Finished inletting a brass patchbox for a Black Walnut Kibler Colonial. Got some gaps but I will deal with that later. It's tedious working with this piece of wood.

 

[deerstalkert]

trimmed the blank for my mortimer replacement stock. started inletting the trigger.
got the mail at 2:30 which was a box of goodies from TOTW. included was 2 boxes of hornady rb for the .32.
hit the 6x8 gong 5 out of five at 50 off hand. it likes 25g fffg with a .310 ball and a .012 patch.
for my first build i think it will work!

I cast up some .440 and .490 round balls with the lead I purchased from Justin on this forum. Very clean lead, he did a great job.

I thought about some of the muzzleloaders I traded and sold off over the years and shed a few tears. lol
